Great racing  in Dutch Championships 2009

10 races, 34 boats, good competition .

Matthias Dietz (GER) on the Nikita was the surprise winner of the Dutch nationals 2009.

With variable and often shifty winds from 5 to 20 knts Catclub Hellecat executed a perfect championship.  Why do we only sail 9 races at a world championship , while 10 races in three days can be done at the Dutch Nationals ?

Matthias sailed a cosistent serie and won the battle  from  Dutchmen Arno Terra  and  Roeland Wentholt.

Guido Schulte ended up 4th , Jorg Horn 5th , Pieterjan Dwarshuis 6th.

The Nikitas from Matthias and Joerg performed surprisingly well on the flat water conditions of the  Haringvliet .

Arno Terra on the Flyer 2 was leading the championship for a long time , but made some wrong tactical moves on the tricky last day .
