9th Police World Sailing Championship 2006
9th Police World Sailing Championship
Phuket, Thailand.
28th October
to 4th November, 2006.
The 9th World Police Championships held in Phuket, Thailand drew teams from Europe, Asia and Australasia - with competitors arriving to practise in the previous week before embarking on the hard fought race series in the second week.
The Hong Kong Police Sailing Team emerged as the overall winners of the 10-race series after beating teams from Holland, Australia, Switzerland and England.
During the week, winds were variable but averaged about 6 knots,
rising to about 10 towards the end of the week. The lighter winds disadvantaged
crews using SO 40s - Switzerland and UK.
The boats were allocated by a draw with the majority
of the skippers voting to retain the boat drawn on day one. The disparity in the
boats resulted in a decision by the skippers that future events will only be
held where sufficient boats of the same design are available.
The bulk of the fleet were using SO 350s that were fairly evenly matched. As can
be seen from the results the racing was very competitive and the final result
was only determined on the final day.
