History of the Finn World Masters

The first suggestion for a special Finn Veteran Gold Cup for sailors over 40 years of age was presented by Dr. Fred and Heidi Auer at the 1969 AGM in Bermuda. The Auers - in those days the most active force in the Finn Class - also organised the first Veteran Gold Cup on the Silvaplana See close to St. Moritz in Switzerland. Even Rickard Sarby sailed in the regatta to represent Sweden. When the first race was scheduled it was raining and very cold. So most of the veterans would have preferred not to sail. But the Dutch Mel Oskamp declared to be eager to sail, and so the race was started. When the sun came, the wind grew even stronger. It always paid to sail very close to the shore along the Ho-Tschi-Minh-path. Finally Mel Oskamp won and therefore had to organise the next event in Holland. From this time stems the tradition, that the winner has the right to decide the place of the next Veteran Gold Cup.

In 1971, Mel Oskamp invited the veterans to Medemblik. Menoni from Italy won and therefore took the Cup to Lake Garda. where Mel Oskamp won it back in 1972. However, since Mel already knew how much work it was to organise such a regatta, he declined the honour to do it again and delegated it back to Switzerland. In 1973, 14 participants met at Lac de Neuchatel. De Yong from Holland arrived, looked around and declared that on that lake there would be no wind and left again the same hour, without even having unpacked his boat. He was right. since only one race was sailed in very poor wind conditions and the title was not assigned.

Because of poor weather conditions the title was not assigned.
 
In 1974 twenty competitors from eight countries met in Port Camargue. Racing was tough with two heats in Force 4 on the first day. which Vernon Stratton won both. When the wind got weaker every day. Stratton faded out. Andre Mevel took over and had difficulties to beat Mel Oskamp.

Mevel kept the Cup in Port Camargue for 1975. Regular winds from force 1-3 ensured perfect racing with Philippe Soria as the chairman of the race committee. Andre Mevel, in those days the French Finn Secretary, was able to beat Othmar Reich from Switzerland in a 7 boat fleet.

The 1977 event had very good participation with 27 skippers from 7 countries. The newcomer Georg Oser, who had learned the basics of sailing just a few years before managed to beat them all, starting a sparkling career in the Veteran Gold Cup regattas. After the race, Georg declined the privilege to organise the next event on the spot and asked the Centre de Yachting Mediterranean, personified in Robert Laban, to organise it again in 1978.

By this time the Germans had taken over the majority of participants and so it was only a question of statistics when one of them would win the Cup. In 1978 Heinz Reiter won the Veteran Gold Cup by never winning a race but scoring 3/5/2/2/4 and discarding a 12th.

When he offered to organise the Veterans for 1979. a committee was formed to override his ambitions and to retain the event in sunny Port Camargue in the experienced hands of Philippe Soria and Robert Laban. When Karel Hruby was the winner in 1979 he turned out to be more stubborn than Reiter the previous year and nobody could convince him not to take the organisation along.

So in 1980 the veterans had to go to Czechoslovakia to Lake Lipno. 30 skippers from 7 countries made the trip. The organisation was of highest standard. Seven races were sailed. Whenever the defending champion Karel Hruby was in front. the wind died. When Georg Oser was lucky the races were counted. So, finally Oser won his second title far ahead of defender and runner-up Karel Hruby.

According to his habit Oser again delegated the organisation to southern France. Good-natured Robert Laban took the full load once again. 38 skippers from 10 nations came after the sun and some exciting sailing. Gy Wossala had superior speed in good winds and won four races, then finished second behind Georg Oser and did not sail in the final heavy wind race.

Gy Wossala was not able or willing to stage the next Championship in his home waters Lake Balaton and therefore delegated it to Austria. Nice gentle winds for the skippers and sun for the ladies were the predominant features of the 1982 Veteran Gold Cup. Ivan Hoffmann was leading most of the time up until the last beat of the last race, and everybody was thinking of sailing in the CSSR again. However smart Georg Oser won that last race and the title for the third time to ring up Robert Laban for help once more.

And Robert Laban was kind enough to grant it. However the wind in Port Camargue was already bored by the constant visits of the old boys. Seven times is fine, but eight is too much and so it was determined to expel the veterans from that paradise. Therefore it blew a lot in 1983; for some too much. The favourite, Georg Oser, collected two wins but also twice a PMS and dropped to 10th overall. The unexpected winner was Heini Unterhauser from German speaking northern Italy.

That is one of the most pleasant spots in the world. Charming vineyards, a comfortable climate, and hospitable people are the main attraction. There is even a small water in between, which they selected for the Veterans: the Kalterersee. They had to divide the fleet into two groups, otherwise it would not have been possible to get the more than 100 boats across the line, already hitting the shores on both sides. Old hand Walter Mai and newcomer Palle-Steen Larsen were equal in overall points before the last race, which was not sailed because there was no wind. So they gave the title to Mai, because he was second in the first race when Palle-Steen ended up 25th.
 
In 1985, an even larger number of veterans gathered in Bavaria. Lake Chiemsee offered not too much wind, but it was good enough for four races. The veterans were no challenge for the professional Jorgen Lindhardtsen who won with four straight line honours. The 110 amateurs behind him enjoyed the event very much.

Before the event the wind either blew a mistral or there was none at all. So the first race started in no wind and large waves with the wind gradually increasing up to a force 6. Tuesday’s race was abandoned due to too much wind, but then they caught up with two races on the next two days. Peter Raderschadt from Germany won his first Veteran Gold Cup with a 1,1,2,2,3 scoreline.

The big and heavy favourites were excluded this year and a Swiss, named Hans Fatzer, who had not been paid much attention to before was the great surprise. He dominated early on with a 2nd, 1st and 2nd in the light conditions and the strong current, but later in the week Schimitzek, Ottlik and König each won a race. The jury was very strict, disqualifying five boats in the first race.

Fickle and light winds plagued the event as a low pressure system sat on top of the Alps and refused to move. The result was that there was very little wind and the famous southerly wind, the Ora, failing to come up. Peter Raderschadt won for a second time.

Only four races were managed to be sailed in 1990 and the rain was incessant. Mikael Brandt won the first race, came 3rd in the second and held on to his points to win. During the week, the sailors forced Georg Oser (Old Joe) to organise an ‘Oldie-AGM’. During this meeting, it was agreed that the event would be know from now on as the FINN WORLD MASTERS and to have a regular meeting during the event at which new ideas can be discussed.

Races were won by old Finn cracks such as Kurt Schimitzek, Walter Mai, Roland Balthasar, Jan Björnberg and Peter Vollebregt. With the title still up for grabs the last race was cancelled because of too much wind. In race 4 Competitor Joseph Thermoz from France died of of heart attack and the organisers wanted to stop the regatta, but his relatives wanted them to continue. “Old Joe” Goerg Oser, long time organiser of the event, retired as Masters Supreme Organiser and handed the reigns over to Rolf Lehnert.

The 140 Masters had every sort of wind condition from 0-6 and after 6 races minus discard both Roland Balthasar and Jiri Outrata both had results of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 and therefore exactly the same score of 14.75. Under the scoring system the scores remained tied, so there were two Masters World Champions.

At SPA, a week before the start of the Masters, Larry Lemieux found out that you don’t have to be 40 to sail the Finn World Masters, as long as you promise to turn 40 that year. That wasn’t a problem so Larry drove down to Lake Garda. Larry Lemieux, and not unexpectedly won the regatta, winning races 1,3,and 4. Roland Balthasar won race 2, Bruno Catalan won race 4 and Klaus Stuffer won race 6.

27. Finn World Masters 1996
La Rochelle, France May 1-10
120 entries from 14 countries
For the first time ever the Finn World Masters was combined with the ‘real’ Finn Gold Cup. A scoreline of 17-2-2-1-9-1 was enough for Roland Balthasar to take the Masters title for the third time. Fifi Ehlers lead at the beginning of the regatta but faded towards the end. Wolfgang Gerz won the 5th race to take second overall.

The problem with the Finn World Masters is that each year a new group of sailors qualify without merit simply by getting older than 40 and so few of the aged skippers kick the bucket! Since 1984 the Masters had regularly attracted over 100 boats, with the highest turnout in 1994 with 140 entries.

Participants came from 13 nations with the largest contingent from Germany. The oldest competitor was Didier Poissant aged 74, the French Olympiad of 1954 in Melbourne whilst the youngest would have been in his 40th year. For the very first time there were two lady entries, one from Switzerland and one from Germany.
 
At a meeting held during the week the Masters Secretary General Rolf Lehnert was elected to be the Masters representative on the I.F.A. committee. This invitation to join forces with the I.F.A reinforces the already very important status of the Masters fleet.
 
Race 1
In an easterly wind of 7 - 10 knots, Wolfgang Gerz sailing under ITA 1 but from Germany, made an excellent start in clear air in the middle of the line and led for the first three legs but in covering the second placed G. Antal lost out to Larry Lemieux from Canada who held the lead to the end. Wolfgang was second followed by Peter Raderschadt in third and Henk de Jager in fourth place.
 
Race 2
After a second failed start the Committee postponed and a delay of some 2 hours ensued. At the restart, Gerz who had started at the favoured pin end and went left up the first beat was first to the mark with Lemieux who started at the Committee boat end being second at the mark. After the wind increased to 2-3, Lemieux managed to slip Gerz’s cover in the shifting conditions to take the gun for his second win with Gerz second and Minski Fabris third. The French veteran Didier Poissant achieved a very creditable 29th place having being in the top ten at the early stages of the race.
 
Race 3
Most of the previous days leaders went left after the start but a very large shift to the right gave an advantage to those who had opted to go right. This situation led to a number of new faces at the weather mark including the eventual winner, Roland Balthasar from Germany, followed by L.Nodari and Michael Brandt.
 
The race committee disqualified 17 boats with PMS and posted a protest against Lemieux for apparently hitting a mark as seen by a jury boat. Lemieux denied this incident and after a peremptory hearing without Lemieux being able to call any witnesses he was disqualified. Later another competitor supported his view that he had not hit the mark but as a good sportsman he let the matter rest although this result moved him from a relatively safe overall first.
 
Race 4
After the third race the wind backed to a sea breeze and settled to force 3 / 4. At the leeward mark on the last round Larry Lemieux, Wolfgang Gerz and Jean Paul Gaston were leading. On the last beat the leaders went left and suffered badly from a 50 degree veer in the wind.  The winner was Bruno Catalan. O. Van Heusden was second place and Jan Bjoernberg was third.
 
Race 5
After an initial postponement and two general recalls the fleet got off with most boats going left. Once again both Gerz and Lemieux fought out the lead. With few windshifts of any importance speed and height through the water were essential and the more experienced helms quickly made both height and distance over the others. The reaches and runs were uneventful but fast and the final beat saw Gerz win, with Lemieux second and Jean-Paul Gaston in third.
 
Race 6
This was a most enjoyable race sailed under excellent conditions and a flat sea state. There were minor wind shifts which became critical near the first weather mark. The race leaders retained their positions with only some changes and the winner was Jean Paul Gaston from France with Wolfgang Gerz and Larry Lemieux in second and third places. This meant that Lemieux’s DSQ had effectively cost him the championship and Wolfgang Gerz walked off with the Gold Cup.
Wolfgang Gerz disproved all the theories being only some 78 kilos weight and sailing as per usual the Finn in this event only and that in a borrowed boat in which he had not sailed before.
