Forty of the top GBR optimist sailors were in Holland training in preparation for the 25th Braasemermeer Easter Regatta. The first day of training was too windy to sail but the following day the coaches, Alan Williams our National squad coach, Ollie Green our Intermediate Squad coach, aided by Tim Saxton and Rob Wilson, put the sailors through their paces. For many this was the first international regatta of the season and a chance to practice before the IOCA World, European and French Selections Trails.
