“Sailing is one lovely activity which actually gets you to anchor in life,” said Thiru. K Pandiarajan, the Honorable Minister for School education, Archeology, Youth Welfare and Sports Development Department, Government of Tamil Nadu at the inauguration of the Eighth Annual India International Regatta here on Thursday. The organizers of the 8th Annual India International Regatta were not spared by the aftermath of the wreckage caused by the recent cyclone that hit the city. What began as chaotic pre-inaugural preparations on the 15th of December, moved on to a spectacular inauguration ceremony graced by the Minister of School Education, Archeology, Youth Welfare and Sports Development Department of the Government of Tamil Nadu Thiru K. Pandiarajan, Dr. Rajendra Kumar, IAS, Secretary to the Government of Tamil Nadu and Thiru. P. Ravindran, IRTS, Chairman, Chennai Port Trust.

Hosted by the Tamil Nadu Sailing Association, the Regatta is the only one of its kind in India and this edition saw about 150 participants from 18 countries.

As the day one of the regatta began with the briefing ceremony, tensions prevailed across various branches of the organizing committee as each faced and tackled various challenges that arose alongside the preparation for the launching of the boats into the sea. Despite all odds, all races went as per schedule. “Despite the cyclone, the organizers got everything together and conducted all the races as per schedule which is a very good thing,” said a parent of one of the sailors. “It was a fantastic sight to see the huge fleet at sea,” he added. The races had been split over 4 days of the regatta and saw four races each for the Laser radial, 29er, RS-1 and Wind Surfer Classes, three races for Laser 4.7 and two races for the Optimists – both the main fleet and the Green Fleet on day one.

Bjurn Zetterstrom, Coach of the Swedish team thought that the condition was perfect. “I think the condition was perfect, the wind was very steady and the swells were something that could be handled and that made the condition perfect,” he said. “The conditions were good but quite different from back home,’ said his daughter and student, Louise Zetterstrom.

On day two, the sailors were greeted with excellent sailing conditions that were a mixture of steady winds from the north-east averaging between 8-10 knots that increased to 13 knots through the day with lesser swells as compared to day one but with stronger currents. “The conditions were excellent, perfect for competitive sailing and racing,” said Mylai Prabhakar, the Deputy Principal Race Officer. The excellent conditions enabled the race committee to conduct three races each for the Laser 4.7, Laser radial and the 29ers.

The optimist class, the biggest fleet with 67 sailors in the main fleet and 15 sailors in the green fleet raced in course alpha and completed four races for both the main fleet and the green fleet. Ramadhan Tito from Indonesia is led the optimist class having got the gun in two of the four races held on day two.

The Thai sailors had a great day of sailing, across the board with their sailors finishing within the top 3 in almost all races of the day. Panwa Boonnak and Jedtavee Yongyuennarn of Thailand are right behind Tito in the leaderboard.

Admiral Kraisorn Chansuvanich, the President of the Yacht Racing Association of Thailand visited the regatta with few other naval officers from the country was impressed with the sailing conditions of the Bay of Bengal “The racing here is very good and I think next time Yatching association of Thailand will come to join the racing every year and if I ever get a chance to come back, I will come definitely,” he said. “I heard that you have sixteen countries in the regatta it is not easy to win in this race because a lot of best sailors from different countries are taking part but my team is new so they will get very good experience of the strong winds, the waves and the tides of the sea in India which will be very useful for them in future events in other countries,” he added. Delighted about the team’s performance and the excellent sailing conditions, he offered a bi-lateral exchange training for Indian and Thai sailors to enable them to get trained in conditions different from home as he as a sailor believes that only excellent training makes a successful sailor.

As the laser 4.7 sailors sailed three races on day two, Samsaurdi of Indonesia and Nancy Highfield of Hong Kong continued to lead the table securing the top two positions respectively. Samsaurdi’s guns in all the races of the day helped him to maintain his first place while Highfield’s fifth and second finish helped her to retain her lead.

The third day at the Bay of Bengal with the north-east wind averaging between 8-10 knots that went to a maximum of 12 knots while gusting. “We had good conditions and good course lengths today, we managed to get all races done on time, except for one small obstruction on the course, we did not have any other issue,” said Race Officer on course B, Praveen Prabhakar, who managed to finish four races for the 29ers, Laser Radial, 420 and three for the RS1. Windsurfer Dayne Coehlo from Goa got the gun in all the three races, maintaining his first position in the leaderboard.
