Hungary invites for Dragon Championship end of May



Lake Balaton displays its best moments in the month of May. The water is getting warmer, we have the first signs of the summer, however, usually we have wind enough to sail the Hungarian Dragon Championship with seven of eight races out of a maximum of nine.

This year will be no other: Balatonfüred, the center of Hungarian sailing sport is calling for Hungarian and foreign ‘Dragonists’ to enjoy the nice feeling to sail with friends in a competitive field. Last year IDA Vice-Chairman Reemt Reemtsma and his team brought home, the Sonnenschein Cup, the prize for the winner of the international Dragon event, but this year they have to sail again to defend their title against their fellow-sailsmen from Austria, Germany and Hungary.

Hotels very close to the harbor of our host, MVM SE, are available in the town, and the Hungarian Dragon Association is offering help to anyone looking for accomodation.

According to the plans the first warning signal will be made on Thursday aftnernoon and the last possible starting time is 13.05 on Sunday.

We are looking forward to meeting you soon! 

Those who would like to sail more on Balaton, we have to warm-up regattas: on May 1-3 and on May 8-9, both in Balatonfüred. Any Dragons can stay in a closed club between the events.

Here you find the Notice of Race.

If you have any questions pls. email us.
