Garda

its the feva worlds there.

does lake garda get waves? realy big waves? 1m frm trough to head?

Agreed Torbole is the better place, but they are choosy as to which regattas they take. Mind you like most things in Italy if you greased a few palms. I think the RS Fleets would be tightly packed if they sailed from there. Also agree sail there more than once if you can afford it. But perhaps not every year as you'd take it for granted. I'm sure after Carnac some of the RS fleet grew to appreciate Garda even more.

When we went we took the simple route through the Mont Blanc tunnel, using motorways all the way to Torbole. There are other quicker and shorter routes but this way you don't have to worry about navigation as it's a breeze. Left southern England @ 4pm and drove in one hit with two drivers arrived at lunchtime the following day. Vehicle was slow as we had a 49er on the roof of the van and a double behind. Double with somone to reduce your costs unless you're rich. Tyre pressures on the trailer are critical, don't be tempted to over inflate them. We took two spare wheels for ours just in case. You have to sail there once before you die.
