London Business School, helmed by Klaus Rasmussen, won the 2013
Global MBA Trophy on the Faliron Bay, off Microlimano, Piraeus, Greece.
The regatta was sailed in One- design 25ft “Platu” boats, provided by
the Platu Class Association of Greece. The boats are normally sailed by
their owners or by professional sailors on the match- racing tour, and
were challenging and great fun to sail. The regatta took place on 26 and 27 April, with training on 25 April.
LBS “Red” repeated Bocconi’s feat from 2012 of 4 first place
finishes, finishing 3rd in the first race and 2nd in the 5th. Second
place went to Kellogg/WHU, skippered by Ingrid Van Wees, who won the two
other races, and got 2nd place in two others, holding onto second place
despite a disqualification for a Port- Starboard incident in the 4th
race. Third place was won by the INSEAD/ AUEB joint venture led by
Spiros Papantoniou.
The winning LBS Team were made up of: Klaus Rasmussen: Helm, Rob
Cotterill: Trim, Mark Buckle: Pole, Joel Shinners: Pit, Veronique Leroy:
Bow.
Warwick had a fine second day, bagging three third places, which was
enough to see them land fourth place overall, above the second LBS boat,
RSM and the joint RSM/IE boat.
