The South Westerly Course And The Prevailing 12 Knot Mistral Produced A Wind Angle Of 90 Degrees For The First Part Of The Race And Five Boats Ran One Another Off To The Left Side Of The Course While The Eventual Winner Alan Woodward Stuck To The Rum Line With The Other 4 Yachts Of The Ten Matching Beneteau First 45's.
Croatia Yacht Rally 2011 meandered toward its conclusion in Dubrovnik last week with a race from Korcula to Mljet, a distance of just twelve miles.
The 'Pearl of the Adriatic ', located on the Dalmatian coast, became an important Mediterranean sea power from the 13th century onwards. Although severely ruined by a tremor in 1667, Dubrovnik managed to preserve its beautiful Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque churches, monasteries, palaces and fountains. Damaged again in the 1990s by armed conflict, it's currently the focus of a major restoration program co-ordinated by UNESCO.
The 'Pearl of the Adriatic ', on the Dalmatian coast, was a very important Mediterranean sea power from the 13th century onwards. Although seriously ruined by a tremor in 1667, Dubrovnik managed to preserve its pretty Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque churches, monasteries, palaces and fountains.
Dubrovnik was set up in the first part of the 7 th century by a bunch of refugees from Epidaurum, who established their settlement at the island and named it Laus. The Latin name Ragusa (Rausa), in use till the 15th century, originated from the rock (Lat. Lausa = rock). Opposite that location, at the foot of Srcic ; Mountain, the Slavs developed their own settlement using the moniker of Dubrovnik, gleaned from the Croatian word dubrava, that means oak woods. When the channel that separated these 2 settlements was filled in the 12th century they were united. From the time of its multinational the city was under the protection of the Byzantine Empire ; after the 4th Crusade the town came under the sovereignty of Venice (1205-1358), and by the Deal of Zadar in 1358 it became part of the Hungarian-Croatian Dominion, when it was effectively a republican free state that reached its top in the 15th and 16th centuries. A commercial crisis in Mediterranean shipping and, more especially, a disastrous tremor on April 1667 that levelled almost all of the public buildings, annihilated the well-being of the Republic. This powerful tremor came as an important point in the city's development.
Dubrovnik is a remarkably well-preserved example of a late-medieval walled town, with a regular street layout. Among the exceptional medieval, Renaissance and Baroque monuments within the magnificent fortifications and the enormous gates to the town are the Town Hall (now the Rector's Palace), dating from the eleventh century ; the Franciscan Monastery (finished in the 14th century, but now principally Baroque in appearance) with its imposing church ; the in depth Dominican Monastery ; the cathedral (rebuilt after the 1667 tremor) ; the customs house (Sponza), the eclectic appearance of which reveals the indisputable fact that it is the work of several hands over many years ; and numerous other Baroque churches, such as that of St Blaise (guardian saint of the city).
The first Global heritage preservation site consisted solely of the defences and the intra-mural town. It was later extended to include the Pile medieval commercial suburb, a planned development of the fifteenth century, and the Lovrijenac Fortress, located on a cliff, which was probably begun as early as the eleventh century, but owes its present appearance to the fifteenth and 16th centuries. Also included were the Lazarets, built in the early 17th century to house potential plague-carriers from abroad, the late 15th-century Kase moles, built to defend the port against south-easterly storms, and the Revelin Fortress, dating from 1449, which was built to order the city moat on its north side.
Six yachts finish in the same minute on the water!
The south westerly course and the prevailing twelve knot mistral produced a wind angle of ninety degrees for the 1st part of the race and five boats ran each other off to the left side of the course while the eventual winner Alan Woodward stuck to the rum line with the other 4 yachts of the 10 matching Beneteau First 45's. The fleet at last came together as the finish line approached and at the end six of the ten yachts completed in the same minute on the water. The match racing hot shots filled up the last five placings.
