Next week is racing week! You better be ready for the European Open, a great highlight of the Esse 850 sailing season taking place from 29th of July until 1st of August 2015 at Malcesine on Lake Garda, Italy. The entry list currently counts 26 Teams from Switzerland, Germany, Austria and Italy. With entries closing tomorrow, we expect the European Open 2015 to become a beautiful third event of the Esse 850 International Class Cup series with almost 30 teams battling for victory. For all super spontaneous teams among you, it’s not too late to register, yet. If you help us break the magic 30, we’ll be utterly grateful!

The race committee had a go at pulling at least one more race through, but today, the breeze was simply not strong enough. In return, the competitors could pack up their gear shortly before 2 pm already and hit the road at a reasonable hour. The final ranking of the Lausanne Cup 2015 thus looks the same as yesterday's provisional standings.

Long story short, the committee tried everything to make the most out of today's very light conditions at Vidy, Lausanne. In the end, the Esse 850 could only sail one fair light wind race. The winner of the day, well... team «Ottocinque».

What a day! The race committee decided to go out at around 2 o'clock. Suddenly, pretty much out of the blue, a perfect southwestern breeze of 10-15 knots picked up only 10 minutes later. The breeze allowed the fleet to sail 4 beautiful races under absolutely stunning conditions.

The teams are on their way to the second stage of the Esse 850 International Class Cup 2015 at Vidy, Lausanne. Although the fleet will be smaller than expected, the 13 teams from Switzerland and Germany will still provide some great sailing action on the following three days in front of beautiful scenery on Lake Geneva.

About The Class

The «Esse 850 International Class» is the official class-unification of the Esse 850 One-Design yachts and was founded in January 2007 at Schloss Rapperswil. Its task is to enable international regattas, stimulate communication among the sailors of the Esse 850 and promote and coordinate all activities in Switzerland and internationally.

In 2010, the Swiss Esse 850 Class was accommodated to «Swiss Sailing» as a Member Class and has been authorized to perform official Swiss Championships. The class association currently counts 50 members who actively participate in regattas.
