All four DTP Optimist helms in one boat. Em struggled at this weekend's Optimist Combi, getting two top ten results but also a couple of back-of-the-fleet finishes.
She was dissapointed as she had hoped to come home with a trophy this weekend as it was 22nd and 23rd August and her sail number is 2223. So much for superstition.
Still, she goes into next weekend's final series on the IJsselmeer at Lemmer in eigth place overall, one place behind Erwin [in the water] and four behind Dennis. Pim [who seems to be swimming with his clothes on] is just outside the top ten but coming up fast. With 16 knots forecast it'll be an exciting weekend for the sailors and their supporters.
