Thirty six clubs gathered in Lindau on Lake Constance for the second act of the season long series in Germany. In addition to Segel-und Motorboot Club Uberligin (SMCÜ), five other sailing clubs from southern Germany are at the forefront in the first sailing league. The Bavarian Yacht Club (BYC) earned their victory on their home waters at high summer temperatures and light wind conditions. The racing was extremely close for the top five teams, separated by only six points for the top four after 50+ races for the fleet. The victory was not determined until the 46th race when the Bavarian Yacht Club (Maximilian Hibler, Julian Autenrieth, Raoul Heraeus, Leopold Lindner) delivered an exciting duel with their closest competitor, the Norddeutscher Regatta Verein (NRV), and then won with a scarce advantage. The NRV took second place, closely followed by the Lindauer Segler-Club (LSC). The reigning German champion, the Deutscher Touring YC, won the last race on Saturday (48th race in Flight 16) and ended up in sixth place. Rounding out the top five after BYC, NRV and LSC were SMCU and KAR (Klub am Rupenhorn). For more Deutsche Segel Bundesliga sailing information, visit http://segelbundesliga.de/.
