The first National Qualifier for Optimist were held in Ängelholm this weekend and it was a big sucess for the young KSSS sailors. Out of 108 participantes 14 were KSSS members (8 from Ranängen and 6 from Saltsjöbaden). Three of them ended up in the top ten places. Lukas Bergman won second place, Johanna Somarlund came 4th and Karl Setterberg 9th. Short there after came Emil Järudd in 13th place and Lucas Hallström at 16th. Emil won the first race on Sunday. The weather was much like winter on Saturday, cold and an unsteady easterly breeze, that varied both in strengh and direction. There were light winds on Sunday, but still shifty and cold. Next qulifier is held in Marstrand the first weekend in May 2010.
