The Real D-One Thread

and so a long season is nearly gone by.we have had real ragattas in czech germany austria italy and all sailors are very happy with the boat, to be quite honest what surprised me most is how much top sailors liked the d one ,sibello 49 european champion loved it and felt at home straight away as well as finn sailors laser sailors snipe sailors...etc equalization seems to really work , for example at the italian nationals the first three where in a range of 25 kgs.next weekend we will have our first gold cup in valencia spain, we have a special trophy and sailors from 14 countries or more attending..ad one interesting mix of champions and passionate sailors.will keep you posted with interwius and videos and pictures of what promises to be a fantastic championship, somehow the feeling that the sailors have when they sail the boat is special and races are really close ...what more to say...you are always invited to come and try sailing the boat and i am sure than you will undertsand why i am so passionate about the d one...with best sailing regards luca devoti

This picture deserves an explanation. The sailor appears to be bearfoot. I can imagine how painful it might be if she steps on a block or other prominent projection...Or if the yot has to be righted...
