The Danish J/70 Sailing League shortened-season finale was sailed off Skovshoved with 18 sailing clubs participating from across Denmark. The fleet had amazing weather all weekend long with great sailing on both Saturday and Sunday. Sailing on Saturday was so good that the host Skovshoved Sailing Club PRO managed to run nine complete flights and 27 total races. In the end, the winners of the finale and the overall season (just two events) were a familiar team standing atop of the podium: Royal Danish Yacht Club’s KDY Sharks. In the past, the KDY teams would participate as just all women or all men’s teams. This last regatta was the first time they sailed as a combined crew, with two women and two men. Henrik Jensen, skipper from KDY, commented at the awards, “thank you for a good event, it’s great to see how the young people storm forward, women as well, and today our mixed crew, that’s the future for KDY sailing.” In the end, the top five teams in the Danish J/70 Sailing League were Kongelig Dansk YC KDY SHARKS in first, Team Roskilde Sejklub second, Frederikshavn Sejklub SEAHAWKS Team third, Kjobenhavns Amateur Sejklub THE BOXES team in fourth, and Sonderborg YC CHIA PIRATES in fifth place.
