2012 Vintage Yachting Games – O-Jolle
The O-Jolle was an event on the 2012 Vintage Yachting Games program at Lake Como, Italy. Five out of the nine scheduled race were completed. 11 sailors, on 20 boats, from 3 nations entered. Venue overviewRace area and CourseOf the three Campo's (Race Area's) available for the 2012 Vintage Yachting Games at Lake Como Campo Bravo was used for the O-Jolle event. In general this Campo is situated in front of the city of Dervio.
For the 2012 edition of the Vintage Yachting Games three different courses were available. The O-Jolle could only use course 3. Wind conditionsThe Northern part of Lake Como was reportedly a thermic wind venue. In this time of year the normal situation is that at about 13:00 the Swiss mountains are heated up and a Southern wind hits the racing areas with about 10 to 14 knots. As result of this no races were scheduled in the morning. Unfortunately during the event the temperature in Switzerland was low during the Vintage. Also was the thermal South breeze battling with the gradient wind from the North. As result the actual wind did not came above the 8 knots during the races and was unstable at times. Campo Bravo has normally a tendency to have a slightly higher wind speed than the two other Campo's this due to the fact that it is more Northern than Charlie so that the Southern thermal breeze is strengthened and that the fact that the lake narrows in front of Dervio. table to be actualized
