– conversation with Mr. Wossala about a race, where the wind was a bit lighter than earlier, but the direction was still northerly…
György Wossala:
We started on the windward side and led the fleet for a short period of time. I told you how it happened. There was a very lucky situation in the first upwind section, where everybody thought they have to choose the shore, but the left tack was much positive than the other. In the meantime a wind came from east, so we pulled out there, that’s how we’ve got the leader position…
The second upwind wasn’t really good, as we pulled the eastern side together with Pitchugin, and it did not worth… Maschkiwitz, Winkler and Auteried left us both there on the way to north, while they received a 20-30 degree strengthening wind. So we felt back onto the 6th place, and climbed back from here.
It was a very interesting, and varied race, and the 3rd position makes me really happy.
(Finishing this race, there were 3 hungarian boats in the top ten. The moment of the truth just arrived for Farkas Littkey and his team, so they could catch the 5th place. Balázs Gyenese finished on the 9th place.
Winkler won the 4th race, in front of Pichugin, and Wossala.
After they finished the race in Balatonfüred the wind strengthened back, so the high pressure showed it’s genius. So tomorrow the wind will be even stronger than today.)
