"Gold Cup of the Nordic Folkboats as a championship highlight at the Kiel Week

For 80 years now, the Nordic Folkboats have been shaping the picture on northern European regattas. Robustly defying every strong wind even on open seas, they beat upwind with a huge mainsail and small jib against steep waves – 1.8 nautical miles long. These are the traditional rules of the unofficial World Championship. To mark the class’s milestone birthday, the Gold Cup 2022 will be held at Kiel Week from June 17 to 21."
