22-23 of July 2017 traditional regatta in Berlin in Marblehead class, called after the famous Janusz Walicki, took place

14 competitors from Czech Republic, Germany, Netherlands, Poland and Ukraine took part.

The wind was mainly A rig, sometimes B rig.

Naviga World Champion Jan Springer (POL 100) was definitely first, the rest of fleet was mainly very tight to each other in every race.

I tried new boat and had some small difficulties while tuning Walicki butterfly and thus made no concurrence to Jan. However, due to stable racing my second position was indisputable.

After 20 races the final results were as follows:

Thanks a lot for Bernhard Graubmann and Beata Walicki and all other people who organized this event that always was held in warm and very friendly manner.
