The only Dutch Olympic Grade 1 event has not only changed its name into Delta Lloyd Regatta, it also restyled its online and local visibility. A brand new website with interesting features has been launched and big screens onshore will show the action between May 21-25 2008.
About 490 boats have entered so far. Since it is an Olympic year, most of the competitors have already qualified for Beijing, which leads to a very high profile fleet. The first two Medal Races are to be sailed on Saturday May 24. The top ten of the remaining classes will battle it out on Sunday May 25th.
