36 first and second division teams started the new league season on Lake Starnberg this weekend. For the 144 sailors, however, the longed-for first weekend in southern Germany turned out to be a cold test. The teams were challenged at just two degrees above zero. The Seglerhaus am Wannsee association coped best with the bitterly cold winter conditions and changeable winds. After a winless 2018 season, the helmsman Jasper Wagner, Felix Bergmann, Elias Rothe and Max Salzwedel got off to a tailor-made start. The Berliners defied the adverse circumstances with seven wins in a total of 16 flights. With only 35 points on their account and ten points ahead, they relegated the Chiemsee-Yacht-Club (45 points) with skipper Leopold Fricke, Moritz Fricke, Lorenz Huber and Simon Tripp to second place. The Bavarian Yacht Club secured third place on the podium with Veit Hemmeter, TeresHemmeter, Leopold Lindner and Jan Nürnberger.

Nice study by the crews of the Chiemsee-Yacht-Club

It was hard. The cold, the hail, the storm - it was really three exhausting days and perseverance was required. We are, of course, all the more proud to be able to call ourselves the winners of the first match day! We want to build on this at the next event in Konstanz,”said helmsman Jasper Wagner after the successful assignment in Bavaria. The decision in the southern duel for places two and three was just a two-point difference between the Chiemsee crew and the team from the Bavarian Yacht Club. “It was an exciting duel! We trained relatively little, but improved a lot over the days and ultimately gave everything,”said helmsman Leopold Fricke.

The top favorites, record winners and defending champions from the North German RegattVerein with Florian Haufe at the wheel had to settle for seventh place at the first test of strength of the season. The German Touring Yacht Club, 2015 and 2016 German champions, botched the season opener and have to start their race to catch up from penultimate place in the table in Konstanz, where the league season will continue from May 17th to 19th. The DTYC crew was only able to leave the Schlei-Segel-Club behind them on Lake Starnberg, which initially has the red lantern of the tail light in the stern in 18th place in the new season table.

The Blankenese sailing club from Hamburg won the first league weekend for the second division. This was ensured by the 505 world champion and veteran Claas Lehmann at the wheel with Florian Dzsiesiaty, Justus Kellner and Valentin Zeller in the boat. In second place, the team from the Hamburg Sailing Club completed the Hanseatic track record on this first sailing weekend for the second division. The only women-only crew around skipper Silke Basedow with Maren Hahlbrock, LuisKrüger and Lea-KatharinWitt was happy about it. The Potsdam Yacht Club secured third place with only half a point ahead of the Itzehoe Sailing Association.
