Elan 310 in this years Skagerrak Twostar shorthanded race

Although we are not participating this year, the Elan 310 is still a contender in this years Skagerrak Twostar shorthanded race, starting right now as we speak.

The 310 "Kårstua" which got second place in their class in last weeks "Færder" race is also racing shorthanded this year.

Strong competitors in their class, and I think one of these will win the class this year:

  • Elan 310 "Kårstua"
  • J/92 "Jolla"
  • Archambault 31 "Angelique"
  • Dufour 34 "Piteraq"

Due to extreme weather forecasts (up to 40 knots and 12 foot middle-to-top waves),  the second (and longest) leg has been changed to go back up the coast and into the Oslo Fjord instead of crossing over the sea to the Swedish coast. Wise decision I think.
