Terje Gilje-Sørnes and co-skipper Lars Ennok Vang won the overall and short-handed divisions of the Sjøtlandet regatta, finishing ahead of the sister ship Avanti, helmed by Kristian Andreasen.0:21 The winning crew completed the course in 201 nautical miles, four miles less than their closest competitor, by executing a precise navigation plan that accounted for wind shifts two hours earlier than anticipated.2:05 During the race, the boat encountered winds between 16 and 25 knots, requiring the use of a medium jib and a single reef.4:13 Gilje-Sørnes noted that the boat’s water ballast provided a significant advantage during the long upwind legs, despite the vessel being designed primarily for downwind performance.3:41 The crew managed the fatigue of the long, upwind-heavy passage through short power naps while maintaining a near-constant watch.6:47 The team plans to compete in the return leg on Sunday, hoping for more downwind conditions to utilize their gennaker.7:52
