After months of brushing and doing jobs on the boat, the one is now back in the water to do what the Soling is really made for: Sail Racing!
The Dutch Soling class releases a list of activities welcoming all Soling sailors. In addition the national class association is organizing a training weekend in Hellevoetsluis.
More information that will be available soon, since this past week the 2nd training session was held on Lake Kralingen.
This time four double handed Solings took part in it and four practice runs were made.
During the SDS we learned that for next week the double handed limitation will be lifted for racing.
So next week we will start sailing full blown again and maybe even with more boats on the starting line.
Would you like to participate, but are you looking for a place for the boat or for an opportunity to crane?
Please contact Rudy den Outer (06-24218063).
We hope to see you all on the water again soon.
