Now that you mention it I recall someone saying that you don't fly your flag during a race. I had no thought about that and did not notice that the others were not flying theirs. But then again, I am not used to racing. In the preliminary result list I was listed as "The Swede" as they did not know my boat's name. So maybe it was good to fly the flag after all.  Johan |

No, sadly I didn't get a cup. I would have to participate in all the races in the series to get one, I think.
The good thing about being able to participate in only one race is that I don't need to worry about coming last next time. Johan |

Hi Johan
Well done Your dinghy sailing experience won't fail you. Since this was an in-harbour race I think it was a wise decision not to reef the main as the wind speed was probably going up and down a lot. Also well done by the 320 crew. I suspect the 320 is quite good when it blows Ole, |

Yesterday Emilia participated in her third race (and so this thread is no longer about her first race). This time I can't be bragging about me sailing single-handed as the ship's dog Stampe was a crew member, although he slept on the cockpit sole throughout the race.
Anyhow, here is the race results:

The winner in the race, S/Y Bua, is the Dufour 34 I talked about earlier and she is the boat I really wanted to race against. She is skippered by a friend who I coincidentally met through myHanse when Simrad IS20 was discussed a few years ago. And by the way, I managed to take a picture of him sailing in front of the Vibberodden lighthouse a few weeks ago. I think the picture will make it to one of the walls in his house.

There were another two Hanses in the race, a 370 and a 320, and both can be seen in the below picture. They are going in the opposite direction as they are headed for the mark I have already rounded.

Here is another picture of the boats still headed for the mark I had just rounded. And there is no boat in front of me.
