Calle Andersen discusses the tactical challenges and wind shifts encountered during a recent regatta in the Oslofjord. The race began with light, slow conditions near Nersnes, but the fleet experienced a significant shift after rounding Nersnes and passing Askelandet. Competitors navigated a transition from westerly to easterly winds, eventually catching a southerly breeze through Drøbaksund. This specific wind pattern allowed a group of boats, including Water Run helmed by Paul Stiansen and Karma Police, to gain a tactical advantage. The leg from Hvitsten to Tristein and up to Sladien involved steady easterly winds, which Andersen described as straightforward tactical sailing. While the conditions favored certain designs, the lack of stronger wind prevented planing sports boats from reaching their full potential. Andersen noted that Karma Police would have performed better in higher wind speeds, which would have better suited the boat's specific design characteristics. The race concluded with a competitive fleet finish, highlighting the importance of managing shifting wind corridors throughout the fjord.
