Five different winners in the first five races and 1 point separating the top 4 teams after Day 1 of the M32 Worlds in Cascais, Portugal.
Tied at the top of the leaderboard are defending World Champion Convexity with skipper Don Wilson and Extreme2 with Dan Cheresh.
They are followed by Pieter Taselaar’s Dutch team, Bilksem, and PJ Postma’s China One Ningbo a point behind.
Until Sunday, 19 races are planned, to decide the World Title of the M32 class, which will undoubtedly be very closely disputed.
Among the 55 sailors present, there are many Olympic athletes, World Champions and sailors from renowned circuits, from Match Racing to the America’s Cup, not forgetting SailGP.
