Don Wilson’s Convexity was able to skip the final race of the M32 World Championship on Lake Garda, the title already won.
Wilson becomes the first Corinthian skipper to claim the title, receiving trophies for both the Corinthian and overall victories.
For the Worlds, Wilson sailed with Taylor Canfield, plus other heavyweight crew Ted Hackney, Kinley Fowler and Josh McCaffery.
Pieter Taselaar’s Bliksem takes second overall with Convergence, helmed by Wilson’s sister Jennifer in third.
With wins in the two opening races of the final day, followed by a second place behind Convergence in race 3, the Chicago team was able to bow out of the last of today’s four races.
The final race was won by Down Under Racing, the joint Aussie-Kiwi team led by Sydney’s Harry Price, and putting them second for the day.
