Cesenatico (a small town south of Venice-Italy)hosted on August 24-27 the European 18HT Criterium.

18 teams attended the event (9 Italians, 7 Swiss and 2 German) sailing Bimare, Ventilo, Eagle and Mattia 18HTs.

At the end the top 6 placings went to the Italians.

The "old" Bimare Javelin 2 got the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th spot while a new Bimare prototype placed a very closed 2nd (actually tied with the first at 11 points).
