Formula WORLDS - whats happening?? Web Cams?, warm up sailing? competitor interviews? ...

ceri | 20th August 2012 (13:47:18)

registration day - lots or racers training. There is a film crew here - and we will have a daily video

Anonym | 20th August 2012 (21:05:06)

Nice course! I would suggest that with such a large fleet that a bouy be placed at the center of the starting line to help keep competitors from going over early

Anonym | 20th August 2012 (21:07:47)

looks like trouble to me
better keep the gate well upwind of the start line or people will be sailing downwind through it while others are starting with back to back starts

Anonym | 21st August 2012 (09:58:40)

Can you please post the registered equipment list ? Thanks

ceri | 21st August 2012 (11:08:12)

"the wind looks light"

That would be a little bit of color in the reporting business! MORE please, the reporting is no better than in 2008 or earlier

Anonym | 21st August 2012 (12:53:33)

GUSTS ARE COMING FROM THE LEFT AND RIGHT. HERE COMES JESPER HE LOOKS UNDERPOWERED. GABRIEL IS CATCHING HIM ON A PUFF FROM THE RIGHT. OH NO SOMEONE JUST CAUGHT THE MARK ANCHOR LINE AND GO CATAPULTED. THE SUN IS PEAKING OUT AND THE TEMPERATURE IS 17C

Anonym | 21st August 2012 (12:55:57)

AND MAYBE A GUY ON THE BEACH REPORTING TOO! HE COULD TELL YOU THAT WOJTEK CAME IN ON HIS 11.8 AND IS NOW RIGGING HIS 10.7. ARNON WAS ON HIS 12 AND IS GOING BACK OUT ON IT UNLESS THERE IS A BIG CHANGE IN THE WIND

Anonym | 21st August 2012 (13:03:14)

bring back that reporter from day #1 please--we're stuck in the office and need some stuff to read! thanks

Anonym | 23rd August 2012 (00:23:05)

Well the sun has set here in Liepaja, though we did not actually see it go down because all the dark clouds and rain. Interestingly enough in the past hour it seems that the sky has cleared and the light from the moon stars are refelecting brightly off the rough sea surface. If this wind continues all night we will have some very different conditions in the morning. Let's all say a prayer that the wind and the beer hold out!

Anonym | 23rd August 2012 (08:31:23)

Really bad work on the website!!!!
