Petter Hermansen and his family team restored a vintage Yngling keelboat to competitive racing standards, eventually winning the Yngling championship.Watch The project began in 2021 after the team raced a borrowed boat and decided to acquire their own hull.0:59 They chose an older model for its high-quality fiberglass construction, opting to strip the boat to the gelcoat and rebuild it rather than purchasing a pre-equipped vessel.1:54 The restoration included installing a new rig from Jon Mast, replacing all deck hardware, and fairing the keel and hull profile.3:33 The team retained the original low-floor cockpit configuration to save 15 kilograms of weight, despite the trade-off of reduced self-draining efficiency compared to high-floor models.4:04 To optimize water management, they modified the internal bulkheads during a second winter refit.5:57 The team follows a structured racing pyramid, prioritizing boat preparation and handling before focusing on tactical experience.9:42 They currently train with fixed roles, with Hermansen steering and managing the mainsail, while preparing for international competition at the upcoming world championship.13:23
