The 2019 RS Feva World Championships moved into the second and final phase with the massive fleet now split into gold, silver and bronze fleets.
For the first day of the final series the sea breeze took a little longer to settle than it had in previous days, but eventually the waves and wind built to a steady 10-12 knots, glam conditions for RS Feva racing!
Simon Cooke and Oskar Masfen from New Zealand went straight to the top of the gold fleet leaderboard with a 2,1,2 scoreline and take a 9 point lead ahead of Britain’s Quinn Edmonds and Finn Oliver (1, 2, 11).
The British pair qualified in 20th place and after an incredible day they shot up to second place on 14 points.
In third place are Raulf Berry and Olly Peters (4,7,5) of Britain with 16 points, and in fourth Lisandru Bunel and Thomas Kuntze of France on 32 points.
In fifth are New Zealand’s Blake Hinsley and Nicholas Drummond with 33 points and sixth are Joe Slipper and Katherine Burgess with 33 points.
Leading the Silver fleet are Gorg Boeckl and Tobias Grasmann of Austria.
Leading the Bronze fleet are David Szmaragowski and Sára Svobodová of the Czech Republic
