the event was really successful and all the crews have left Venice smiling” “I can't find words to tell you guys, how great it was! The organizers, the Jury, the Club, everybody involved has done a great job. I just wanted to personally inform you that it was such a pleasure to sail here these 3 days and 40 (!!!) races.

sober! We say many words how we all need to promote the Dragon class, attract new people etc. And some people are just doing this. Right here in front of our eyes” “It was a pleasure working with you all and to participate in such a great
and want to thank you for your hospitality. We hope to meet you again at some
