In an impressive display of consistency on the shifty, puffy waters of Alster Lake in downtown Hamburg, Germany, the Norddeutscher Regatta Verein Team “five-peated” the German J/70 Sailing League. Their helmsman Tobias Schadewaldt was also a repeat winner from their 2018 winning team. The ONE Kiel team secured the runner-up title in their first season as a first division club. Last year’s champions from the Seglerhaus am Wannsee association took third place on the podium. The Bodensee-Yacht-Club Überlingen prevailed in the second sailing league and, in addition to regatta victory, also won the season overall, ahead of the Mühlenberger Segel-Club in second and the Joersfelder Segel-Club in third. The 36 clubs of the first and second sailing Bundesliga competed in the final showdown on Hamburg’s Alster Lake over three days. With a four-point lead ahead of their rival ONE Kiel, the NRV started the regatta as championship leader after the previous four regattas and secured the championship trophy and the title on the final day in excellent wind conditions.
