Final day of racing at the 2020 Forward WIP 49er, 49erFX and Nacra 17 European Championship on Lake Attersee, Austria.
Fourth place was not the finish Britain’s John Gimson and Anna Burnet (2,6,16,2) were hoping for after starting the final day of the Nacra17 Europeans in second place.
But they were in good company as overnight leaders Santiago Lange and Cecilia Carranza (8,8,17,13) also suffered, finishing 6th overall.
While the two leading crews took a bath, Ruggero Tita and Caterina Banti (6,5,1,4) of Italy stormed to a four point victory, to claim the European title.
Second were Quentin Delapierre and Manon Audinet (5,4,2,6) of France and third Vittorio Bissaro and Maelle Frascari (4,1,4,7) of Italy.
In the women’s 49erFX Tina Lutz and Susann Beucke of Germany are the new European champions, with a four point victory.
Second were Helene Naess and Marie Ronningen of Norway and third Julia Gross and Hanna Klinga of Sweden.
Britain’s Megan Brickwood and Stephanie Orton placed 19th overall.
In the 49er, Germany’s Tim Fischer and Fabian Graf took the title with a 3, 2, 13, 11, finish for a three point victory.
In second place Benjamin Bildstein and David Hussl of Austria, and third Sime and Mihovil Fantela.
