Ancora una volta il Lago d’Iseo ha fatto da splendida cornice al Campionato di classe O’pen Bic organizzato dall’Associazione Nautica Sebina.
Oltre 50 partecipanti appartenenti a club nautici di diverse regioni italiane (tra cui la Sardegna) e della Svizzera (YC Ascona) si sono sfidati in una tre giorni caratterizzata dall’alternarsi di condizioni ventose e di bonaccia, da momenti di aggregazione tra i ragazzi e di confronto tra gli istruttori.
Venerdi 27 le prove sono state annullate per mancanza di vento, sabato 28 invece, il vento, sebbene irregolare, ha permesso agli U12 di disputare le due prove giornaliere, mentre agli U15 è mancata la terza prova interrotta per condizioni di vento insufficiente.
Domenica 29 sono state disputate tutte le prove in programma e la classifica finale ha aggiudicato il titolo di Campione di Classe a Margherita Porro dell’ANS per la categoria U12 e a Alessandro Perez della L.N.I di Ostia per la categoria U15.
In occasione del Campionato si sono svolte anche le elezioni del nuovo Consiglio Direttivo dell’Associazione di Classe O’pen Bic che riconferma la segreteria a Edo Lisotti e nomina a neo Presidente Guido Sirolli. Entrambi saranno supportati da uno staff di consiglieri tecnici federali che avranno come obiettivo la diffusione e lo sviluppo di questa nuova e dinamica classe giovanile.
Per info: segreteriaopenbic@gmail.com

Lake Iseo was once again the setting for the Italian O’pen Bic Class Championships organised by Nautica Sebina, the last week-end of August, 27th to 29th August 2010.
50 young sailors from all over Italy, as well as from Sardinia and Switzerland (YC Ascona) gathered to take part in these three days of competition and fun. Weather conditions however were calm and not very windy.
Friday 27th, the day’s events had to be cancelled due to lack of wind, but the following day however, despite irregular wind conditions, 2 races were able to be held for the U12. Unfortunately the U15 had to interrupt their third race due to lack of enough wind.
On Sunday 29th August all races were held and the title in the U12 came to Margherita Porro of Ass. Nautica Sebina, and for the U15 it is Alessandro Perez of Laga Navale of Ostia who took the title.
Elections were held for a new board of directors of the Association and Edo Lisotti was re-elected as Secretary to the Class and Guido Sirolli was elected the new President. This team will work closely with advisors from the Sailing Federation and will aim to develop further this new young and dynamic Class.
Une fois de plus le Lac d'Iseo a été le cadre splendide du Championnat de classe O'pen Bic 2010 organisé par l’Associazione Nautica Sebina.
Plus de 50 participants provenant de yacht-clubs de différentes régions italiennes (y compris la Sardaigne) et de la Suisse (YC Ascona) se sont défiés pendant une trois jours caractérisés par une alternance de conditions de vent et de calme, de moments de fun parmi les enfants et d'échanges entre les moniteurs.
Vendredi 27, les épreuves ont été annulées pour manque de vent, samedi 28, par contre, le vent, même si très irrégulier, a permis aux U12 de faire deux épreuves. Les U15 par contre ont dû interrompre la troisième épreuve à cause des conditions de vent trop faible.
Dimanche 29 toutes les épreuves en programme ont été portées à terme et le classement final a attribué le titre de Champion de Classe à Margherita Porro de l’Ass. Nautica Sebina pour la catégorie U12 et à Alessandro Perez de la Lega Navale de Ostia pour la catégorie U15.
Pendant le championnat, ont eu lieu les élections du nouveau conseil d'administration de l'Association de la classe O'pen Bic. Edo Lisotti a été re-confirmé Secrétaire de la Classe et Guido Sirolli a été nommé nouveau Président. Ce team sera accompagné par une équipe de conseillers fédéraux et aura comme objectif la diffusion et le développement de cette nouvelle classe jeune et dynamique.
