RESULTS
In the first endurance race, Solar Boat Twente started foiling and soon took second place. At the halfway point they caught up with the front runner and moved into lead position. They managed to keep this position until the finish and finished first in this section. The second day the start was a bit rough because the foils picked up a lot of seaweed. However, the team achieved second place at the halfway point and managed to hold on to it until the end. All in all, these results were enough to secure first place in the final ranking!
