Notes
- 5.5 GER 81 & her sisters - 21.05.2020 by Kaspar Stubenrauch
- This Doug Peterson design proved to be the most successful of the 90's. Seven sisterboats were built by MELGES Boatworks, the boats shown here with their respective sailnumbers over the years:
Z-181 > NOR 61 > SWE 65
L-40 > SUI 200 > FRA 50
US-97 > AUS 82 > GER 82
NOR 57 > NED 21 > AHO 1 > AUS 64
K-39 > GER 39 > SUI 196
Z-189 > GER 84
Z-191 > GER 81 (Cannes 2016: CAN 78) - "phénix" - expected in Cannes - 14.09.2016 by Kaspar Stubenrauch
- John Lister reports, that the Canadian Sailing Federation has given the go for sailnumber CAN 78, to be used for the French Open in Cannes, in September. A big welcome to John Lister & Crew in Europe and Thanks to the owner of the boat for giving this opportunity.
- Moving up in category - The Greifswald team - 07.06.2013 by Kaspar Stubenrauch
- After having raced many years with "Choc", a 1960 Classic, the crew became owner of a Muir/Lexcen designed Evolution boat, GER 75 "Above the Line". Now, it is on to the next design progress, with the purchase of SUI 191 "Phénix", now GER 81. A Modern, next?
