Not as usual, this year, the main event of the class, the Europa Cup Esse 850 in Malcesine, was fully stormy and full north wind «Pelèr » dedicaded.
Past weekend, the traditional Uristier-Regatta on Lake of Uri lived up to it's reputation: Heaps of sun, 27 degrees celsius and 25 kts of thermal breeze formed fantastic yacht racing conditions.
On the occasion of season half time, the committee is glad to herewith publish the preliminary total ranking of the Esse 850 IC Cup 2018. Congratulations to the team of GER 041 with skipper Martin Buck for the current lead!
For its 3rd consecutive year, the Geneva Cup beat a couple of records. The sunny weather and wind conditions were excellent with a nice Bise throughout the 3 days, with gusts reaching 30 nots on Friday.
The world's largest lake regatta celebrated its 80th anniversary – and Esseboats was strongly represented. Of the 580 boats at the Bol d'Or Mirabaud on Lake Geneva, 18 were Esseboats boats.

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.
