Åbordrunt: 60th jubilee regatta of Kramfors Båtklubb


On Saturday, August 25th, was sailed the 2008 edition of the Frånö Industri Cup / Åbord runt. The sailing club of Kramfors - Kramfors Båtklubb (KBK) - has held the race and 18 crews were at the starting line in the morning. Also 8 boats from Härnösand, for the "flag" of HSS, were at the meeting to catch the thophy: this year, it has been a special edition of the Åbord runt race since KBK was celebrating the 60th anniversary of its foundation.


The race has been sailed with a moderate light wind from North in a beautifull sunny day, so the boats reached
the first mark at Hästholmen with a course on windward against the current, under the Höga Kusten bridge. Then the course was downwind to round counterclockwise the big isle of Åbord, to be back to the bay of Lövvik with a close reach shifting in a windward leg at the finishline.

The fastest boat at the finishline was the Carrera Helmsman "Non-stop" of Håkan Karlström, that has covered the 9 miles of the course in 3:24':30".
Winner of the 2008 edition of the Frånö Industri Cup / Åbord runt
is "Inez", the SK22 from Docksta, and its italian crew racing for the KBK flag.



After the race, the boat were alltogether moored at the little and very nice gästhamn of Lövvik to join the pricegiving: we chose to tell you the big fun of the 2008 edition of the
Åbord runt regatta through the images of the sailors joining the event.
Here, in the High Coast Images section, are all the pics :-) >>
