Beside the lack of wind, the Tornado family had a lot of fun around the venue – organising swimming races, boat-lifting action, and plenty of social activities, all in a positive spirit, staying connected.
Participants left Attersee full of gratitude for the outstanding hospitality of the host club, Segelclub Attersee and the unforgettable atmosphere of the Tornado Class. Many highlighted how the regatta brought the fleet closer together, creating memories both on and off the water. The event was praised as a true celebration of sailing, community, and friendship – proving once again why the Tornado remains such a unique and cherished class.
We’ve grown together as a group. Thank you all for the wonderful days and moments. Each one of you contributed. Please keep investing in new teams within your community. Get home safely!
