2005 7th District Championship (Taca Royal Thames)

 

Scheidt and Prada win 2005 7th District Championship

Out of seven races sailed on Guanabara Bay in Rio de Janeiro, Robert Scheidt and Bruno Prada had 5 firsts, a second and a third to take the Star Class 7th District Championship/Taca Royal Thames from 21 other boats Nov. 13-15, 2004.

Scheidt, ISAF World Sailor of the Year in 2004 and two time gold Olympic gold medallist in the Laser, discarded his worst finish, a 3rd on Saturday, and finished 11 points ahead of Peter Fickler/Marcelo Jordao and Olympic medallist Lars Grael/Marco Lagoa. Peter and Jordao, with a first place, took the tie breaker to become the Vice Champions of the district.

This was Scheidt/Prada’s first regatta in a Star, after sailing the boat only two months. They are aiming for the 2005 Star World Championship in January in Argentina.

Other Brazilian competitors in the district championship were Gastão Brun / Ubiratan Mattos, Lars Grael / Marco Lagoa, Admar Gonzaga Neto / Renato Tinha Moura e Peter Ficker / Marcelo Jordão. Absent from the regatta were the two time Olympic Star gold medallists Torben Grael / Marcelo Ferreira, as was Star World Champion Alan Adler and crew Ricardo Ermel.
