Kuiper Brandarisrace (Harlingen)

Go to the website of the Kuiper BrandarisraceThe Brandaris race starts in Harlingen and the intention is to sail to Terschelling as soon as possible. It is a relatively simple race but very cozy with the unique opportunity to visit Terschelling in a weekend.

 

In 2010 it was a boisterous race with a lot of wind (up to about 7 Bft.) but the new mainsail held up excellently and sailed us to a 2nd place. After a good start fourth we quickly went to the top 3 of the field with a strong NO. wind and a speed of 11.5 knots. First half wind we had to tolerate the Mare Marieke and the Flying Draeck in front of us. At the end of the Blue Slenk we quickly took the lead high in the wind. Most spectacular was the overtaking of the Flying Draeck by us. Above the Ledge we had to go overboard and it went into the West Meep with a blood course. There we had to put up with unity over us. And so the two of us went far ahead of the rest of the field towards the finish where we finished second just after the Unity.

After a few years of not participating, we became 2nd again in 2018. In 2019, we were considerably less successful with a 10th place, just like in 2021 (11th). 2020 was cancelled due to the Corona, but in 2022 we are going to do it again!

Saturday evening, after the prize-giving ceremony, there will be a smashing party in de Bras. On Sunday you can relax a bit during the relaxed sailing back to Harlingen. Registration has already started so if you like it, quickly let us know and book via the “Book directly!”button.

We organize all competitions including catering. If you want to join or have questions, you can call Laurens Orange (06-21506336) or email info@johannaengelina.nl.
