2010 Contender Worlds, Another day in Paradise
< Zurück   Weiter >
timOriginally designed as a future single handed Olympic dinghy by the young Queenslander in 1966, when he was still known as Bob Miller, the Contender dinghy is celebrating its 40th World Championship in its Queensland design birth place.

Chris Sutherland, Contender Class President says ‘This Worlds is a landmark event for the Contenders. We designed them, we build them and we win in them. Four Australians have won the Worlds on a total of nine occasions.'

Over 60 boats from Australia, Great Britain, Germany, Netherlands, Italy, Denmark and France are in Brisbane to compete for the championship.  The Australian Champs took place 3rd to 6th January 2010 and the Worlds are from 7th to 12th January 2010.
