Frederik sails Nanoq in Saint Tropez

 border= Saint Tropez, France - April 1, 2006. Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark took part in the first regatta of the Farr 40 European Circuit 2006 on the Danish boat, Nanoq.

Crown Prince Frederik's boat retired from the last race which means he must have had a problem with the boat, a sail, or some other technical issue. The Farr 40 class is extremely competitive and as Frederik has won the 2007 championships to be held in Denmark, he must be very keen to improve Nanoq's performance. The Farr 40 class is an 'owner-driver' championship so no Frederik, no Nanoq entry. We can expect Frederik and the Nanoq crew to practice as much as possible through the summer in the lead up to the World Championship 2006, to be held in Newport, Rhode Island in September. Last year's world championship was in Sydney.

Have you seen the magazine article suggesting that Joachim was after a Mary look-alike? Marie has many similar features to Mary and their names are almost the same!
