The weekend of October 27-29 the LISOT team of Marlena Fauer, Deirdre Lambert, Evan Read, Antoine Screve, and Declan Whitmyer is attending the 20th Annual European Opti Team Cup in Berlin, Germany. They are representing the Unites States as a result of their win at the USODA Team Race Nationals in Lake Minnetonka this past summer.
The 16 teams attending were divided into two eight team groups. The 16 teams are from 15 countries. This is a record in the 20 history of the event.
The final day's competition was tough. In the end, Poland was the winner, Norway second while USA (LISOT) tied with Singapore for third but lost the tie-breaker to finish 4th - an improvement over last year's 6th place finish.
Once again LISOT proved they could sail with some of the best in the world. Congratulations to our sailors and their coach, Staffan Johannson, for another great team racing result.
