Eleven Star Sailor teams will decide the Star Sailors League Lake Grand Slam on Lake Neuchatel tomorrow. Principle Race Officer, Sharon Bourke, called off racing at 16:00 (ECT). A fickle southerly breeze failed to establish itself and it was decided to call the qualification rounds to a halt.
The Final of the SSL Lake Grand Slam will take place tomorrow, Saturday 12th September, with three knock-out stages before the four remaining teams progress to the final. All of the rounds tomorrow are one race – knock outs.
The eleven finalists:
1 - Mark Mendelblatt - Brian Fatih 25 pts.
2 - Torben Grael - Guilherme De Almeida 33 pts.
3 - Augie Diaz - Arnis Baltins 34 pts.
4 - Ivan Kljakovic Gaspic - Josh Revkin 40 pts.
5 - George Szabo - Patrick Ducommun 44 pts.
6 - Robert Stanjek - Frithjof Kleen 47 pts.
7 - Xavier Rohart - Stefano Lillia 50 pts.
8 - Jean-Baptiste Bernaz - Pascal Rambeau 53 pts.
9 - Mateusz Kusnierewicz - Dominik Zycki 54 pts.
10 - Johannes Polgar - Markus Koy 73 pts.
11 - Jorge Zarif - Bruno Prada 74 pts.
Mark Mendelblatt and Brian Fatih won the qualifying stages and will get a bye for the quarter finals. The top six teams in the ten-boat Quarter-Final will progress to the Semi-Final to be joined by Mendelblatt and Fatih. The top four teams from then go through to the final.
