Racing in the summer capital of Estonia Parnu in the Estonia open match the freshie racing team ended up 3rd. The regatta was very interesting with tight racing on the blue sail 24’s. The team had a solid last day winning every race expect one race to the Finland favourite. With no semi finals been raced due to time constraints we were left to fight it out in the petite final against the local favourite Marti Sepp
The petite final was close with Freshie Racing controlling the pre start to hold the Estonian team over the line, giving a significant margin to Nicholas and his team. There was large separation on the upwind where the local gained ground. By controlling tacking duel and keeping phase Freshie racing managed to hold off Sepp and secure 3rd position.
The eventual winner was Olli Pekker the 31st ranked finish team who dominated the regatta winning every race in the round robin.
