Five days of world class sailing, a big Whitsun Festival in Langenargen's Gondola Harbour, ten teams from eight countries and more than 20.000 spectators at the German summit of duel sailing on Lake Constance – the 22nd edition of Match Race Germany ended on Whit Monday with a spectacular duel in front of enthusiastic crowds:
New Zealand's KNOTS racing team did it and won the gold medal, dethroning defending champion Eric Monnin and his Capvis Swiss Match Race Team by 3:2 in a high tension final.
