Lick the Knife Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 Hi all, F16 inaugural Global Challenge (Worlds) has started. Results and more can be found here. www.f16worlds.zandvoortonline.com/ Marcus on the Formula Catamarans Australia Blade has started well, 3rd. after 2 races. Great to see Blades making up a large part of the entries, a great Aussie design, built and sailed all over the World. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil_taipan117 Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 Perhaps the big Wout will be a little more reticent in giving his opinion on all and sundry after this latest humbling. It is good to see the Aus. blade doing so well after such little time on the water. If I had a spare 20 grand I would acquire one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not bad for a first try, at least 5 countries are represented, I have seen world titles claimed with less than that. I did put worlds in brackets more as a explanation of what was trying to be achieved, it is not being claimed as a official world championships.

xmatelot Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Hi Gary, I was not knocking the class, if I remember correctly , the hobie alter challenge was sailed with Blades, I was making a comment on "Wouter Hijinks" performance ,(is that his real name, or a "nom de plume),he seemed to think he was the F16 guru,he may come good in the rest of the regatta, and I will have to eat humble pie . All classes start off in a small way, (unless you have enough push to have them as an Olympic class ) pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
