Last weekend, the Danish Sailing League hosted their women's WOW J/70 League event in the picturesque waters off Aarhus, Denmark. Eighteen women's teams from across the country looked forward to the always-close, highly competitive racing. After two days, each of the teams was able to sail eight races.

Demonstrating they hadn't lost their edge after winning several regattas last season, TEAM SALT came out ripping, winning their first four races with ease. Thereafter, they closed with a 4-1-6-1 to coast to an easy victory with just 16 pts total The balance of the podium included Team STORM in second and the local host team in third place- AARHUS WOW QUEENS team.
