Sitting in third the Austrian duo Hans Spitzauer and Christian Nehammer, after a very consistent week in which they have always been among the leading pack of the fleet.
Piet Eckert was also winner in the Master category, Jorgen Shoenherr (DEN), sailing here with Markus Koy (GER), is the Grand Master winner – 7th overall – while young German Finn sailor Philip Kasueke is the best Junior skipper, and 13th overall.
