ecc 2012 logbook - ECC 2013

Engineering Challenge Cup
05 th to 12 th of May 2012
So together with our partners we tried to brush up the event at this location and combined
what we think was the best of the past with the best of today.
• We asked and won once again Alen Kustic, the acknowledged best Race Officer the
event ever had. And, of course, we will hear ‘Balde - Balde’ again.
• We asked for a well experienced local partner to support us and guarantee a perfect
event and won Ilirija d.d. Everybody will remember Milan, Ivan and all the other
friendly people of their team.
• We asked for the best fleet and won a very homogenous and sportive fleet from charter
companies who wowed us with amazing substantial overnight repairs in the middle of
nowhere (Piskera) when most of us thought at least one team would miss the next
races. But please, don’t provoke something like that this year! ☺
Supported by Milan and Ivan we got a mixture of well proven places - and fantastic locations,
where the ECC fleet has not been for several years or even never before. And we are quiet sure
that we all together will have a lot of fun in
Enjoying

But all this would not have come true without the generous support from our sponsors. From
heart-warming and encouraging commitments at last years prize giving party in Marmaris
(thank you to Bruce Douglas and Helmut Schuller from AVEVA) to our very welcome ‘last
minute sponsor’ (thank you to Thomas Wehrheim from DOOSAN LENTJES) we found quite a
few very friendly and engaged people and generous companies who helped the ECC fleet
hoisting sails once again.
