(Lorient, France)- As if winning two previous regattas and sailing in
the top ten at the recent J/80 Worlds in Copenhagen, Denmark was not
enough, Eric Brezellec and crew on INTERFACE CONCEPT 2 continued their
winning ways this season sailing the French J/80 Circuit. With 35 boats
sailed by many of the top teams in France, it was quite remarkable to
see Brezellec sail to 4-3-6-6-1-rdg for 14.4 pts, not having to sail the
last race to win!Second to Eric's team was yet another IC boat, the team of INTERFACE CONCEPT I sailed by Jean-Charles Moriceau. Their 6-1-14-3-6-1 record for 17 pts was not enough to overcome IC2's dominant sailing. Lying third was J ILE'DE'RE sailed by Olivier Guillemin, their 2-bfd-1-7-3-4 for 17 pts losing the tie-breaker (their BFD unfortunately came at a bad time for them, taking them out of contention for the lead). Fourth was ATLANTIS sailed by another renowned French sailor Laurent Sambron, learning the ropes and angles of Lorient waters very quickly to garner a 8-7-6-1-4-6 record for 24 pts. In fifth was another top J/80 sailor, Sylvain Pellisier sailing VOILERIE ALL PURPOSE with flashes of brilliance, but inconsistent, record of 1-13-23-4-5-2 for 25 pts.
