9. BavAdria Cup
Dear Sailing Friends,
Last weekend the 10 annual BavaAdria regatta took place in the Bay of Kastela. Among the 14 crews, all sailing in equal Bavaria 46 types, there were a number of renowned skippers, including Mate Arapov, Karlo Kuret, Marin Misura and Vasilj Zbogar. Due to a strong NE wind, the two Saturday races were canceled, and only one round took place on Sunday during 4-8 kts wind speed.
At the begining of the regatta, Sailing Club “Mornar” with Frane Arapov as the skipper, took the lead. Arapov’s crew was exchanging the lead with “Marina Kastela” and “Coast Guard” crew throughout the race.
After two hours of sailing, the boat that arrived at the finish line first was “Marina Kastela” with BavAdria base manager Armano Zekan as the skipper. Second was the “Coast Guard” and “Mornar” only came in third. Along with Zekan, the “Marina Kastela” crew consisted of Capt. Pasko Kolombatovic, Pave Brajcic, Ervin Kuzmanic, Mladen Kuzmanic, Damjan Berket and Boris Bakotin.
After the regatta all the crews sat down for fresh fish and a few glasses of wine and enjoyed the music of “Klappa MP 3”. Then the awards were given out to the best crews and everyone celebrated another succesful and joyfull BavAdria regatta.
Hope to see you again next year!
Your BavAdria Team
