The Dragon was an event on the 2012 Vintage Yachting Games program at Lake Como, Italy Italy. Five out of the nine scheduled race were entered. 39 sailors, on 13 boats, from 9 nations entered.

Race area and Course[edit]

Of the three Campo's (Race Area's) available for the 2012 Vintage Yachting Games at Lake Como Campo Alpha was used for the Dragon event. In general this Campo is situated in North of Dervio.

For the Dragon the Campo Alpha was available. Course 2

For the 2012 edition of the Vintage Yachting Games three different courses were available. The Dragon could use only course 2.

Wind conditions[edit]

The Northern part of Lake Como was reportedly a thermic wind venue. In this time of year the normal situation is that at about 13:00 the Swiss mountains are heated up and a Southern wind hits the racing areas with about 10 to 14 knots. As result of this no races were scheduled in the morning. Unfortunately during the event the temperature in Switzerland were low. Also was the thermal South breeze battling with the gradient wind from the North. As result the actual wind did not came above the 8 knots during the races and was instable at times.

Campo Alpha has normally a tendency to have a slightly higher wind speed than Campo Charlie this due to the fact that it is more Northern than Charlie so that the Southern thermal breeze is strengthened.
