2017 DRAGON WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS
Boats representing 18 countries battled in one of the toughest regattas of the year, with North Sails powering clients to place 1,3,4,5,9, and 10th overall
The Dragon World Championships, which happens every two years, was an all-around success this year with nine beautiful days of racing in Cascais. Twenty four teams, representing 18 nations, brought their best performance to races held out of the Clube Naval de Cascais in breeze ranging from 15-22 knots. North Sails clients found great speed on the water, placing 1, 3, 4, 5, 9, and 10th overall. Also powered by North was 1st place Corinthian Rosie, with skipper Benjamin Morgen.
Vicente and Joana Pinheiro worked tirelessly with their team at North Sails Cascais, offering overnight repairs to competitors throughout the week. Big thanks to the Cascais team for being there on site for the competitors. Happy sailors make for successful events!
Congratulations to Andy Beadsworth and his team on Provezza Dragon for winning the 2017 Dragon World Championships!
