Team Harken Boys @ the A Worlds


The 2012 A Class Worlds were a big breeze event (totally the opposite of what I thought they would be) but with what mother nature threw at the organizers they did a great job to get the event run.
 
All the Aussie & Kiwi boys did us proud and pretty much took over the top ten.
 
Team Harken also did us proud coming away with a win by the crazy man from Dutch land Mischa Heemskerk, the newly crowned World Champion.
Mischa is a great sailor and just loves it, no matter the wind strength he is ready to take it on.
 
The Aussie Harken Team had some great results and gave it their all, their results are below;
Steve Brewin 3rd
Jack Benson 7th
Stephen Brayshaw 22nd
 
Jack Benson AUS 13
 Jacks quote for the event is
Big breeze and big chop its like riding a pony up wind
Ride that pony I say!
Stephen Brayshaw AUS 25

Mischa Heemskerk NED 007


Jack Benson, riding that pony!

So till Takapuna NZ next year.
Could very well be my first A Worlds as I'll be there.
