Crown Prince Frederik and Sailing Competitions: 2003 - 2022

[Mandy]

First, I'm must apologize to wiwaxia as I clearly misread the article (I used an online translator.)

Secondly, I merged and copied as many posts as I could find regarding Frederik's sailing competitions (Dragon Class and Farr 40) from 2003 to present. If I've missed any posts, please notify one of the Danish moderators (Mandy, Empress, Dazzling or JessRulz) via PM and we will be happy to add them to this thread.

Thirdly, within the confines of the TRF rules, feel free to discuss Frederik's interest in the sport of sailing. Don't forget to support your opinions with reliable published reports.

Have fun!

Mandy

Nanoq

I like the name of CP Frederiks boat. Nanoq is the Greenlandic (Inuit) word for polar bear.

Are Mary and the children in Key West with Frederik?

According to the Farr 40 website Frederik is competing in a sailing competition from 8 to 11 March in Miami but in the Danish Offical Calendar he has official duties in Denmark on the 10 and 11 March. Looking at the cover of BilledBladet it looks like they are all in Miami.

If im not mistaken, thats an old picture of Mary in Florida.

 

[Ccile]

Could a danish translate the title of this article???

 

[JessRulz]

You're right dazz, that picture of Mary and Isabella is from last year's trip to Miami for the Farr40 Worlds. The title of the article is "Mary and Frederik in Florida with the Children - From Ski Holiday to Sun Holiday"

 

[Ccile]

ok so at that time we don't have photos! hope we'll some in a couple of days!

Hmm the picture has baby Isabella in I think??

According to the Farr 40 website.

March 5-8th = Acura Miami Grand Prix , Miami Beach Florida USA. NA Winter Circuit.

I can't find any info to say if Frederik is taking part or not?

And according to the forums Danish Royal Calender.

March 10
The Crown Prince attends the opening of the University of Copenhagen's Climate Change Conference at the Bella Centre.

March 11
The Crown Prince and Princess attend the the Defence Force and Air Force's Medal of Honour dinner at Christian VII's Palace at 20:00.

So in theory he could attend both??

This is a scratch sheet of entries as of March 4th 09.

[JessRulz]

In lumutqueen's link to the scratchings list, Nanoq (Frederik's boat) was scratched from the Farr40 events. I wouldn't think he'd go all the way to Miami if he and his team couldn't race.

 

[Lady Claire]

I'm confused. If his boat was scratched from the Farr40 events, then why is his boat listed under the B- Farr40 list?

 

[JessRulz]

Do you mean this link (from lumutqueen's post) Lady Claire? This is the list of boats which were scratched from the competition - including Frederik's Nanoq.

 

[Lady Claire]

WOW, I feel like a total idiot!
I thought it was a list of boats in the competition. I didn't put two and two together.

 

[Ccile]

The whole family is in Miami for a regatta! Here is an article from Billed Bladet! I guess we'll have pics later in the day

Poor little prince in the first picture!! where is his mummy????lol

It's sad that we don't have at that time some pics of mary and Isabella

 

[Royallife]

Nice pictures ! Frederik looks great!

 

[Empress]

Who is the man carrying Christian? Have they engaged a male nanny? Or is this perhaps one of the protection officers?

 

[biboquinhas]

It seams that is a Frederik's friend!

 

[Lumutqueen]

It must be a protection officer.
Aww such a cute boy.
No pictures of Mary & Isabella?

Whole family gathering is it?

[biboquinhas]

No it is not a protection officer it is indeed frederik' s sailling friend! Just look at the shirt he has!

 

[Lumutqueen]

Is he part of the sailing team, i cannot see his t-shirt, Christians foot is in the way.

[eireann]

Christian has changed so much in the past few months. He's lost his baby look and I think he looks a lot more like Fred now, esp in the BB picture.
