Eisenstadt sailors conquer bronze on the exciting sailing biathlon!

on the Pentecost weekend was all about the sailing biathlon on Lake Neusiedl, which was organized by the Oggau yachtclub in cooperation with the Austrian Army Yacht Club. Fifteen crews from eight different sailing clubs took part in the exciting competition, which was both a shooting and a sailing competition. The shooting competition took place on Friday, followed by the sailing event on Saturday, where the boats had to slide over the lake.

The participants showed impressive achievements, but the shooting results were so close together that the overall victory was only decided when sailing. Andreas Katzenbeißer from the Mörbisch yacht club secured first place, followed by Christian Tschida from the Yachtclub Theresian Military Academy in second place. The Eisenstadt Segler Bernhard Karner and his preview Leopold Rainprecht from the Freistadt Segel Club Freistadt Eisenstadt won third place, which was considered an important success for the club. The order in the finish line corresponded exactly to the placement in biathlon, which caused additional tension.

challenges in competition

The race management under Markus Ondrag had to deal with some challenges during this event, including waiting times for wind and the threat of a thunderstorm cell. Despite these difficulties, the event was successfully carried out, and the award ceremony took place in the idyllic port of Oggau.
