๐๐ฅ๐ฎ๐น What a show: our ORC World Championship ends with a podium finish! After a total of 8 intense races, we secured third place in Class 0, tied on points with second-placed TP52 Vudu and just a breath away from the winner, the TP52 Summer Storm (congrats guys!). ๐ช๐๐ฅ
Huge congratulations to the whole team, itโs been an incredible week of sailing.
๐ฌ โIn these conditions, it takes very little to gain or lose several positions.โ โ @bressanilorenzo , tactician onboard Roberto Lacorteโs RocketNikka. The North-powered WallyRocket 51 delivered a 3-2-2 on day two of inshore racing at the ORC Worlds to move up to second overall in Class 0. The coastal around Capri is next.

Tactician Lorenzo Bressani explains how small decisions, changing pressure, and nearly identical boat speeds turned every manoeuvre into a potential gain โ or loss โ across the fleet.
