EC, Paros. Day one.
Finally there was no races because of too strong wind. "Jimmy with bolls" - this is how guys called Jimmy Lever who want as a first on the water with 9.8 sail and wind up to 45 knots in gusts. Finally rest of competitors also went on the water. Race committee was close to set the course but they've decided that it's too late and the condition are a bit to dangerous.
More shots from Paros.
On Paros wind blows like hell. Only Steve Allen tried with formula ("..it's impossible to race" - he said after) and the rest of guys did freestyle. We've got 30 competitors already registered. Today there's opening ceremony and tomorrow at 10:00 first skippers meeting.
Check out photos from inscription day.
Hello from Paros. Today is the registration day. We've registered already 13 competitors but we also got message that the Polish team arrived (Wojtek, Polanowski and Hubert Mokrzycki) and some guys didn't registered yet so there is a chance to reach 30 competitors.
Today in Paros we've got wind up to 40 knots but it's off-shore so the water is still flat although no formula board on the water - are they afraid?
In the evening we'll put some photos and provisional competitors list.
