AUSTRALIAN CAMPAIGNS
Whilst Australia has not yet won any Olympic medals in the Mistral
Class, we have a former Men's World Champion - Lars Kleppich. Kleppich,
who won the Bronze Medal in the Lechner Sailboard Class at the 1992
Olympics, won the World Title in November 1999, having returned to
sailing full-time only twelve months beforehand.
Other Aussies to do well in the Mistral Class include Natasha Sturges,
who won the 1992 World Championship and the Bronze Medal at the 1994
Mistral Worlds. Previously, Natasha had also won three consecutive Gold
medals at the ISAF Youth World Championships in the Mistral class.
