ALL EVENT INFORMATION

A strong field of 27 boats saw four German teams join the line-up at the nation's premier youth sailing event, which also featured racing for Optimist, Laser Radial and Zoom 8 sailors.

A close call to glory in the 420 fleet, but ultimately the final race 8 did not change the final podium, but with just 3 points separating the top three teams the outcome was wide open.

A string of top finishes saw Niclas Lehmann/Sarah Kofler lead into the final race, and their 4th place was enough to maintain their edge over sisters Theresa Schiemer/Johanna Schiemer.

Final race pressure seemed to get to Yannis Saje/Johannes Reder who scored their worst result, a 10th place in race 8, which they discarded to finish in third overall.
