1 • FINN Sailing AS A LIFE SPORT

T

he 2018 Finn World Masters was sailed from the Club Naútico El Balís, about 40 km north of Barcelona on the north-east coast of Spain, in the village of Sant Andreu de Llavaneres. It turned out to be the second largest Finn event on record, just three boats less than the 2016 Finn World Masters at Torbole, on Lake Garda, Italy.

In 2018 the event attracted 352 entries from 32 countries. Club Nàutico El Balís is a giant marina complex surrounded by restaurants and bars and was an ideal venue to host the Finn World Masters.

In the 48 years of the event, 2018 was only the second time it has been hosted in Spain, so it was long overdue. The club took the Finn Masters to heart and made a huge effort with great social events, meticulous attention to detail and more than 100 volunteers helping throughout the event. Every sailor felt genuinely welcomed.

The huge Masters fleet is split into various age categories, from

10 • INTRO

Masters up to Super Legends. The age demographics this year were quite interesting with the youngest group, the Masters (40-49) being one of the smallest groups. The Grand Masters (50-59) at 141 entries and the Grand Grand Masters (60-69) at 97 entries showed that Finn sailing provides a sport for life, and that once hooked, Finn sailors find it hard to give up. It is certainly an addictive pastime.

The biggest surprise was perhaps the upper age groups with a record-breaking 43 Legends (70-79). The Legends are an inspiration for every other Finn sailor. Who doesn’t want to be fit enough to keep sailing Finns into their seventies?..Or their eighties? And then there are the Super Legends, those for whom time means nothing. For the last two years the event only had one entrant in this category. This year there were five, mixing it on the race-course with sailors half their age. The biggest challenge was expected to, and did, come from the oldest sailor, 83 year old Gus Miller, in a rare Masters appearance.

inn sailing continues to grow year on year and the Masters fleets are no exception, with huge fleets across Europe and growing fleets elsewhere in the world. The largest nations were as usual Germany and Holland, but with its largest turnout ever, the home nation, Spain, fielded 24 entries, evidence of the amazing growth in the class there over the past few years.

The defending champion was Vladimir Krutskikh, who was also the winner in 2015. He won in 2017 after a drama filled medal race in Barbados to overcome Rafa Trujillo. However, none of last year’s winners in any category defended their titles in 2018. There was so much depth across the fleet and so many boats on the water, that every point was vital. With four groups sailing each day, one point was the equivalent of four places. Any mistakes were severely punished.

The greatest interest during the week was in the Grand Grand Masters category where two former Spanish Finn Gold Cup winners were taking part in their first Finn World Masters. Joaquin Blanco

Roca won the Europeans and the Finn Gold Cup in 1977 and went on to finish fourth at the 1984 Olympics. José Luis Doreste won the Europeans in 1987 and the Finn Gold Cup and Olympic Gold in 1988.

These two jumped back into the Finn in 2017 and had been training hard for this championship. While both sailed exceptionally well, few would have predicted Doreste to win the overall title, but the light conditions perhaps played to his strengths.

In the end, only five out of eight scheduled races were sailed, with the event suffering from unusual and excessive inland thunderstorms that killed the normal thermal activity at the coast. They always say, ‘It’s not normally like this’, and that was probably truer this year than ever before. Three days were lost because of no wind. But the five races there were sailed on Wednesday and Friday were exceptional, with perfect race management. Despite all the weather problems, it was a week to remember with the great local hospitality mixed with the fun that Finn sailors get up to whenever they are in the same place.

3 • OPENING ON THE BEACH

T

he 2018 Finn World Masters was opened on the club’s private beach under beautifully blue Mediterranean skies, together with fantastic Catalan hospitality.

From the first arrival to the last, every Finn sailor had been warmly welcomed by the club, which had been planning for this for three years.

At the opening ceremony, the Finn Masters President, Andy Denison, commented on how smooth everything has been running and the welcome everyone has received. “The attention to detail is outstanding.”

The Mayor of Sant Andreu de Llavaneres, Joan Mora, said the village was very proud to host such this high level event. “The village has a long history of sailing and watersports so this is a unique opportunity to put the village on the map. I want to thank the club and the team working in the event, for always supporting training and sailing.”

Miguel Angel Mateo, the President of the Catalan Finn Association and José Maria van der Ploeg, the Spanish Finn Olympic gold medalist

in 1992, also took to the stage to welcome all competitors to El Balís.

The club’s Finn fleet has been a key part of the growth in Spanish Finn sailing over the last few years, with the Catalonia fleet growing from just a handful of boats five years ago to more than 20 today.

Catalonia was where the Spanish Finn fleet first began in the 1950s, so it was a poignant moment to bring the Masters to the region.

Interviewed before racing started, José Luis Doreste said, “With 350 competitors for sure there are many that have been training at a good level. For me it is very difficult to evaluate, because I haven’t been doing races, so I really don’t know where I am and how everything is. I would be happy if I was in the top 10.”

“Comparing the Masters against an Olympic campaign, the big difference is the tension. Now we don’t have to demonstrate anything. We are not fighting for anything, just to be here to compete, to have fun with friends, that is competition, but there is no stress, that is the biggest difference.”

W

aiting for the wind is an inescapable part of sailing, but the Spanish wind made the sailors wait far more than is usual, and certainly far more than was expected from the normal conditions at the time of year. Many sailors arrived early to train and get to know the waters, but not many were able to get in more than few hours of sailing in the week leading up to the championship.

The practice races on Sunday were started but did not get very far, all racing being abandoned soon after. Despite another beautiful day on Monday, light winds also precluded any racing taking place. A light wind was established late morning and after a short delay ashore the fleet was sent out on the water. While there was a sailable breeze on launching it soon died away in the hazy sunshine leaving the fleets drifting around on a glass like sea.

For a while the wind threatened to build from the south, but that too faded and never returned and the fleet were eventually sent back to the harbour.

24 • WAITING FOR WIND

However, the sailors remained positive and happy and enjoyed their day. After coming ashore, they were treated to a beer party and a raffle for the daily prizes, on the beach at the event village.

The wind abandoned the venue on Tuesday as well. The storms inland were quite obvious with dark clouds telling everyone to party instead of sail. The coast remained largely sunny, so everyone was in good spirits. The day ended with a champagne and strawberry party on the beach, with the daily prizes again being assigned by a bow number raffle and beach games, involving beer and champagne. The men’s race was won by Mark Perrow, from New Zealand, and the women’s race was won by Tina Sperl, from Austria, the only woman entry.

Despite the lack of racing, the morale of the fleet remained high and everyone enjoyed the fantastic hospitality and sunshine. But enough was enough. By Wednesday everyone was desperate to go sailing, if only to give their livers a break. It was the best forecast of the week at that point. It was time to race.

fter three days without wind the championship finally got underway on the Wednesday with three races completed. The 350 boat fleet, split into four groups, each sailed three races in a sea breeze that built from 7 to 12 knots during the day.

In the Yellow fleet José Luis Doreste and Giacomo Giovanelli, from Italy, shared the line honours. Doreste was unsure about his speed before racing started and surprised himself with how well he sailed. Doreste scored a 1,2,1 to end the day at the top of the fleet. Giovanelli also had a good day to lie in second overall, with Aleksander Kulyukin, from Russia in third.

Doreste said, “If I had to choose the wind strength to sail in, it would be what we had today. My boat is very powerful and I have good speed, so I had a very nice day. Much better than what I expected.”

In the Blue fleet, race wins went to David Huet, from France, Matt Visser, from Australia and Xavier Penas, from Spain.

28 • WEDNESDAY

Visser explained, “I have Jake Lilley’s mast and boat, so I just had speed to burn upwind. In the first race I made some stupid mistakes, but in the second I just kept out of trouble.”

On the other course areas, arguably the harder fleets with most of the favourites allocated to them, race wins went to Thomas Schmid, from Germany, defending champion, Vladimir Krutskikh, from Russia, and Philippe Lobert, from France.

In the Green group, Laurent Hay, from France dominated the first race, had a problem finishing the second due to catching up the previous fleet and crossed second and then got a jury penalty at the start in the third, which left him mid fleet. Antonio Poncell, from Chile, won the second race and Fredrik Tegnhed, from Sweden, the final race.

The whole fleet, and the organisers, breathed a huge sign of relief.

Not only was the championship now underway, but the sailors had had a fantastic day on the water with some great racing.

n winning the 2018 Finn World Masters José Luis Doreste made history. He is the only person to have won all major senior Finn titles: the European championship, the Finn Gold Cup, Olympic Gold and now the World Masters.

The wind has also deserted the coast for the fourth day, which ended with no more racing taking place, despite waiting in hope all day. So everything was dependent on the final day for a valid championship. A minimum of four races were required for a series, and five were needed for a discard. The forecast was for a building easterly and the start time was brought forward to maximise the chances of racing being possible before the wind increased too much.

The forecast predicted wind, and plenty of it, but when the sailors arrived at the club, the sea was flat and lifeless. Some people starting packing up in dismay, however the wind soon developed and it wasn’t long before an easterly breeze was in place. The first race was tricky with several large shifts and the current causing abandonments

and restarts, but the wind finally stabilised at 9-12 knots and the fleets enjoyed two great races, gradually increasing through the day, though it didn’t hit 20 knots until the fleet was long ashore.

Many sailors jumped the gun and picked up one or two starting penalties, which changed the overall standings somewhat. In the Yellow group, the defending champion Vladimir Krutskikh took a win, but couldn’t match that in the other race, and ended up fourth overall. Thomas Schmid won his second race to end up ninth.

Antonio Poncell dominated the Blue fleet and nearly won both races, but former champion André Budzien from Germany, ended his week with a win, just a couple of boatlengths ahead of the Chilean.

Over on the other course, Paul McKenzie, from Australia, and Christoph Burger from Switzerland took the wins in the Red fleet, while in Green fleet, Brit, Simon Percival took the win after the winner over the line was black flagged, and Aleksander Kulyukin, won the second for seventh overall.

8 • gus miller – super legend

T

he oldest Finn sailor competing was Gus Miller, 83, from the USA. Gus is a class Legend in more ways than one, former Vice President, the creator of the Finn Class clinics, he was also a top level sailor in his time, notably winning a Gold Cup race aged 56.

He was interviewed on Day 1 while waiting for the wind.

“People come up to me that I have not met before and I will introduce myself to them and they say, ‘Oh yes I have read about you, or heard about you or I know about you’, and I wonder who is this guy that they heard about. In a way it’s a testament to the amount of energy I put into the class over many years. Gerardo Seeliger, who is also here, was the Treasurer of the class when Jacques Rogge was the President and I was the Vice President.

“We started a programme around the world to bring lots of say, third world countries, or countries that did not have programmes, into the class, and through that I got to meet an awful lot of people.”

“I’m lucky that at my age I can still get in the boat and sail it. When I

step into it I step into another world. When I get into the boat, suddenly the years fall away, concentration comes back, the focus comes back, and my body feels younger. It’s like driving the finest little car… like having a Maserati, the best sports car you can think of. This thing is so sensitive and so subtle, it’s marvellous to get in it. There are very few boats I’ve ever sailed that have the sensitivity that this thing has.”

“This boat is so sophisticated and subtle that no one can ever master it and when you are racing, it is not against the others guys so much as against yourself. If you can master the boat as well as you can, then you will do well. If you are having trouble it has nothing to do with the other guys, but the other guys will help you.”

“Because the guys work together and push each other so hard, the level goes very high. The guys are interested in pushing each other up. They learn that when they are young in the boat and they carry it into this. So the guys here are just as serious as the professionals going after the Olympics.”

fter a 30 year gap it would seem Doreste had lost none of his Finn skills. He also picked up the Grand Grand Masters title in addition to the overall title.

“I am happy to return to sail the Finn. I have not sailed Finns for 30 years and I am really impressed with the power and strength of the class with 350 boats sailing here with such good materials. I am really convinced that the Finn class will survive, and I would like to continue sailing Finns. Next year I will try to be there next year. I like Denmark, so everything is in my favour.”

“My goal was to finish top ten and in the medals of the Grand Grand Masters, so I am very happy of the final results.”

On the organisation “Very, very good, but I have been in many races where we didn’t have any wind, so that is something you can’t fight.

From the club side I think they have done everything possible to make sure that everyone is comfortable. They have worked very hard. And on the water it has also been very tough for them, and very good racing.”

72 • power and strength

Runner up, Poncell, and also the Grand Masters winner, was surprised at his success.

“I never thought about this success. Chile is a little country down in South America and our fleet is very new, but we are pushing hard for the Finn class and we are very happy being here and having such a success. I am so happy. Thanks very much to the Finn class for keeping us alive and we keep on pushing and making sport and that’s what we are looking for.”

Giovanelli took third overall, and was the first Master.

He was also impressed with the level of organisation. “Perfect organisation, though unfortunately there was not much wind, but altogether it has been an amazing event. I have had fun, stayed together with friends and made new friends, and I hope to participate also in Denmark next year.”

“It’s always an emotion to be standing there on the podium, even more to be standing alongside sailors like Doreste.”

P

atience had been a key part of the championship with three days of no racing. The lack of wind flummoxed the organisers, who had gone to great efforts to put on one of the best organised Masters championships ever. No stone was left turned in their pursuit of creating the perfect event. The result was a credit to the club, the principle organisers and more than 100 volunteers and officials who made it all happen.

At the closing ceremony, Miguel Angel Mateo, who had the vision for the initial approach to the Finn Masters three years previously was acknowledged and honoured, not only for bringing the event to his home club, but also for developing and building the Catalan Finn fleet to the position of strength it now occupies.

Throughout the week while the lack of wind was frustrating, the Finn Masters are old and wise enough to know that you cannot beat nature, and spent the days in long conversations, looking at sail trim and making friends. Several sailors commented that they really

enjoyed the opportunity to spend so much time talking with their fellow Finn sailors and just enjoying being there.

However, whatever man plans, nature is in charge. It was with comic irony that after a week of light or non-existent winds, the prizegiving was held in a strong onshore breeze, [to add insult to injury, on the following few days the breeze continued to blow, taunting those who stayed in the area, though sometimes there was even too much wind to hold racing] but with the fabulous racing still fresh in their minds, the prizegiving was a great spectacle of celebration and thanks.

At the prizegiving ceremony, the largest cheer as always went to the Legends and Super Legends with a record breaking entry.

Friedrich MĂźller, from Germany, won the Legends category for the second time, while Gus Miller, won the Super Legends by a considerable margin. Gathering 45 Legends on stage was not only an emotional moment for everyone, but proof that Finn sailing is a wonderful and fulfilling sport for life.

t the 2018 Finn World Masters more than 350 Finn sailors made a very powerful and convincing statement. The championship brought together some of the most influential, talented and successful sailors in the history of the class for a week of community, friendship, and discussion and, when the wind allowed, some close and exciting racing.

It was an incredible statement about the current popularity of not just the Finn class, but also the need for all-inclusive, fun and manageable racing across a huge age range. Sailors from 40 to 83 lined up together to enjoy a common aim: Finn sailing with and against friends, old and new.

Some sailors renewed friendships made 50 years ago; many more made new friends that will last a lifetime. Old stories were told again; new stories were created. The Finn class has a heritage that transcends the boats, though the boat is at the centre.

While the lack of wind was at times frustrating, the sailors made

84 • STEADY AND RELIABLE

good use of the time, conversing, teaching, inspiring and exchanging ideas on what makes a Finn go fast, the state of the sport and on life in general. It was what happens in boat parks right across the world, except this was on an epic scale, with five boat parks to visit to explore the people and the boats.

Because of the conditions, the event ended up being so much more than the sailing, and the sailors made the best of the opportunities they were presented with, but of course the competition and the sailing was key.

Everyone had expected a week of steady and reliable 10-15 knot thermal winds, but the only thing steady and reliable was the never ending hospitality of the club and the daily calls to enjoy the huge volumes of free beer, cava and strawberries at the parties each evening.

Everyone recalled regattas where there was no wind, but few present could recall events that had laid on such wonderful hospitality.

hat José Luis Doreste could come back to the Finn after a 30year absence and win the title with a 14-year-old boat says as much about the man as it does about the class. It is the first time in a long time, perhaps ever, that a Grand Grand Master had won the overall title. He had surprised himself as much as anyone else, but proved the old adage ‘Once a Finn sailor, always a Finn sailor’. The skills learned in the Finn last a lifetime.

Doreste’s success comes after a revival of the Catalan and Spanish Finn fleets over the past few years and this year’s Finn World Masters was a driving factor in increasing the fleet size, but the national fleet is also growing at all levels, not just the oldies. Indications are that this is not a peak for the Spanish class, as is often the case when major events are held, but just a step towards further growth, with many future plans already being made for the fleet nationally and locally. It would seem the Finn World Masters has had a very powerful stimulating effect on the Spanish fleet.

90 • ONCE A FINN SAILOR...

Spain was also the best performing nation. Taking into account the top three sailors in each nation, Spain was the clear winner with three boats inside the top 10, ahead of Germany and Russia. Of the 32 nations present, 24 had three or more sailors attending. The biggest fleets as usual were from Germany (43) and The Netherlands (39).

The spectacular and energising prizegiving on the beach, complete with a pulsating backing music and confetti cannons, acknowledged and celebrated the heroes of the week. It was as much a celebration of life as it was the closing of an annual Finn sailing festival that seems to know no bounds, and has no limits.

After the great final day of racing, the prizegiving ended the event on an incredible and emotional high. It was how all prizegivings should be done, with passion, with ceremony and with celebration.

There was more than one wet eye in the cheering audience, especially when more than 40 amazing Legends took to the stage to be acknowledged and saluted by their peers and friends.

aking part in the Finn World Masters is as much a battle against yourself as it is against your fellow competitors. Former world champions and Olympic gold medalists line up alongside the 83 year old Super Legends or recently converted enthusiasts who only took up Finn sailing in their 50s. All were having fun, enjoying the boat, the hospitality and the huge community of Finn friends from all around the world.

For some of the sailors, the Finn World Masters is the highlight of their season, training all year just to be fit enough to compete.

For many it is the only event they get to; their one chance for Finn competition. But for everyone who turns up it is a statement of joy, of fun, of intense competition and of life. To dig up another old class adage, ‘The journey is the reward’.

The biggest problem for the last few years has been finding venues big enough to take the fleet. Sooner or later it will expand past 400 entries, and that will bring new opportunities, but even

94 • ...ALWAYS A FINN SAILOR

that is still less than 50 per cent of the active Finn Masters fleet worldwide. It’s interesting to note that two years ago the event also attracted more than 350 entries, but in El Balís, more than 100 were first time entries. The numbers keep getting bigger. The growth is unstoppable, and in the end it comes down to the boat and the people. As one Master commented, “What a boat! What a Class!”

For an event that started really small on a lake in Switzerland by a group of Finn friends, the Finn World Masters has grown into one of the biggest single class events in the world. It is hot property and will continue to be the main focus for a group of like-minded, enthusiastic, aging athletes who would rather not be anywhere else than sailing against their friends in a Finn.

Once a Finn sailor, always a Finn sailor.

Long live the Finn and long live Finn sailors.
