First stage: European championship - Moscow, Russia

Joan "Fulli" Fullana on the bow

This is Team Weiller for the European championship starting tomorrow in Moscow.

After the first skippers meeting, the pairing list has been set, crews and umpires have been presented.

Today was training day, sailing infront of the club complex, the 16 crews had 2 hours time to get used to the boats used in this event (ricochet 747). Some incidents happened. We had a rock contact as we were sailing fast upwind. Our Bowman, Fulli, was close to fall into the cold russian waters. No injuries were suffered, so we are ready for some racing tomorrow.

We'll keep you informed!
