MAX KOHLHOFF AND OLE BURZINSKI ARE THE 2023 STAR WORLD CHAMPIONS
Dreams come true when you work hard for them. Max Kohlhoff and Ole Burzinski won the 2023 Star World Championship today in Marina di Scarlino, Tuscany, after three years of dedication, training, and passion for sailing and for the Star boat. They started the Championship with a bullet and ended it with a golden star affixed to their mainsail, a lifelong dream for the 200+ Star sailors in Scarlino. For some, this was their 20th attempt. This year, it was Max and Ole's turn to win.
FOUR RACES COMPLETED AND A NEW PROVISIONAL LEADER AT THE 2023 STAR WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
Day Five of the 2023 Star World Championship started with another couple of hours' wait ashore. The 200 sailors feared the morning would follow the same dreaded pattern of the previous days. The Race Committee went out early on the water to monitor the wind. The easterly breeze was expected to shift to allow the anticipated and more reliable northerly breeze on the racecourse, and indeed, it did.
No wind, and then there was too much of it
It is On and OFF the 2023 Star World Championship in Marina di Scarlino, Italy. No breeze for the first two days, two amazing races yesterday and too much wind today. The 96 boat fleet went out on the water around noon and had a taste of what the race would feel like. The expression on the competitors' faces says it all - some are having a blast and some others are just frightened!! 22+ knots with over a meter waves..
The photos were taken on the way back in.
Tomorrow two more races are scheduled!
FIRST TWO RACES IN SCARLINO, ITALY, AT THE 2023 STAR WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
After two windless days, it was finally time to get going at the 2023 Star World Championship at the Marina di Scarlino, Tuscany. The frustration that had accumulated in the past two days for the 96 teams, representing 25 different countries in Italy, was finally released thanks to a 10-knot southerly wind blowing on the racecourse since the morning. The fleet was soon on the water in the Gulf of Follonica, and the first race started as planned.
ANOTHER NO RACE DAY
Day Two of the 2023 Star World Championship presented itself with the same calm conditions over Scarlino, Tuscany, as the 100-boat fleet eagerly set sail, hoping for the wind tofill in. However, rather than the much-awaited breeze, nature had a different plan in store – a gentle drizzle began to fall, casting a temporary veil of rain over the gulf.
