Zhik 29er World Championships at Pwllheli Sailing Club - Day 3

by Jerelyn Biehl 12 Aug 2015 08:58 NZST 8-14 August 2015

Despite best efforts, no racing was held in Pwllheli, Wales today. What little breeze was forecasted never settled to anything race able for the 193 teams.

So the qualifying results stand with James Wilson/Oscar Gunn (NZL) and Juho Kotiranta/Akseli Keskinen (FIN) tied for first after seven races with both teams carrying five firsts and 1 second. Tam Lindsay/William McKenzie (NZL) are lurking just 2 points behind with Chris Williford/Wade Waddell (USA) trailing by one more point. British National champs James Grummett/Daniel Budden (GBR) round out the top 5.

As of the press release, protests continue to be heard to finalize the final flights for gold, silver & bronze fleets, which will be posted in the morning.

Finals begin tomorrow for 3 days with the prizegiving on the final day, August 14.
