Croatia Yacht Rally 2011 meandered toward its conclusion in Dubrovnik last week with a race from Korcula to Mljet, a distance of just 12 miles.
The 'Pearl of the Adriatic ', positioned on the Dalmatian coast, became a crucial Mediterranean sea power from the 13th century onwards. Although seriously ruined by a quake in 1667, Dubrovnik managed to save its beautiful Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque churches, monasteries, palaces and fountains. Damaged again in the 1990s by armed conflict, it is now the focus of a major restoration programme co-ordinated by UNESCO.
The 'Pearl of the Adriatic ', on the Dalmatian coast, was a vital Mediterranean sea power from the 13th century onwards. Although seriously ruined by a quake in 1667, Dubrovnik managed to save its attractive Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque churches, monasteries, palaces and fountains.
Dubrovnik was founded in the first half of the 7 th century by a group of refugees from Epidaurum, who established their settlement at the island and named it Laus. The Latin name Ragusa (Rausa), in use until 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 name of Dubrovnik, derived from the Croatian word dubrava, that means oak woods. When the channel that separated these two settlements was filled in the 12th century they were united. From the time of its corporation the town was under the protection of the Byzantine Empire ; after the Fourth Crusade the city 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 actually a republican free say reached its top in the 15th and 16th centuries. A commercial crisis in Mediterranean shipping and, more especially, a disastrous quake on April 1667 that levelled the majority of the general public buildings, wrecked the well-being of the Republic. This forceful quake came as a turning point in the city's development.
Dubrovnik is a remarkably well-preserved example of a late-medieval walled city, with a regular street layout. Among the outstanding medieval, Renaissance and Baroque monuments in the wonderful fortifications and the enormous gates to the city are the City Hall (now the Rector's Palace), dating from the eleventh century ; the Franciscan Monastery (finished in the 14th century, but now mostly Baroque in appearance) with its imposing church ; the intensive Dominican Monastery ; the cathedral (reconstructed after the 1667 quake) ; the customs house (Sponza), the eclectic appearance of which reveals the indisputable fact that it's the work of a few hands over many years ; and a number of other Baroque churches,eg that of St Blaise (guardian saint of the town).
The original Global heritage preservation site consisted only of the defences and the intra-mural city. It was later extended to incorporate the Pile medieval commercial suburb, a planned development of the 15th 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 15th 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 offer protection to the port against south-easterly gales, and the Revelin Fortress, dating from 1449, which was built to command the town moat on its north side.
6 yachts finish in the same minute on the water!
The south westerly course and the current 12 knot mistral produced a wind angle of 90 degrees for the first part of the race and 5 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 10 matching Beneteau First 45's. The fleet ultimately came together as the finish line approached and in the final analysis 6 of the 10 yachts finished in the same minute on the water. The match racing hot shots filled the last 5 placings.
The post-race dinner at the Bourbon restaurant in Polace set the scene for a Roman style party, appropriate because Polace boasts the remains of a Roman villa.
All of the northwards end of Mljet is a national park and the lay day was spent walking thru the luxurious pine forests that surround Lake Jezero.
The following and last race was set on a course across to Kobas on the mainland but dawn broke on a glassy sea with very no chance of wind. Around 12 , however , and to everyone's surprise, a twelve knot south easterly filled in around 1pm and the fleet worked across the passage on a flat sea in perfect summer conditions. Once more the fleet split and those who stayed to sea caught the yachts looking for non-existent lifts along the shore. After a run to the finish the yachts again finished in a 'heap'.
The machiavellian Alan Woodward of the Royal Brighton Yacht Club stayed out of the match racing frays between Roger Hickman, Steve Barlow from the Royal Sydney Yacht Squadron and David Buckman from the Port Lincoln Yacht Club. Alan finally won the day on handicap from Alan Hare, a racing novice who basked in leading the famous Roger Hickman for a large part of the last race.
The final two nights at the sumptuous Dubrovnik Palace Hotel saw a steady wind down from an excellent rally sailed in ideal conditions.
