Day 2 of the Allianz Regatta in Holland saw lead changes in three classes.
Of the British competitors, Connor Bainbridge moves to fourth in Formula Kite and Lily Young is now sixth in the women. James Percival remains in seventh in the ILCA7.
In the men’s ILCA7 a pair of second-place finishes from Finland’s Valtteri Uusitalo was enough for him to move into first place overall, despite two wins for Willem Wiersema, who is now up to third. Previous leader Duko Bos is second.
In the ILCA 6, Maxime Jonker now leads the way with a second win in four heats to sit on four points.
Compatriot Marit Bouwmeester was not in action on day two and will return at the weekend.
Meanwhile, the Formula kite continues to be a French affair, albeit with a lot of competition on the men’s side.
The battle for supremacy in the Formula Kite Men is as tight as ever, with France’s Axel Mazella and China’s Qibin Huang still in control of their respective fleets.
Poema Newland (FRA) continues to lead the way in the Formula Kite Women, adding two more wins to sit on 10 points, five clear of second-placed Gisela Borrell (ESP).
Jessie Kampman (FRA) is up to third and could challenge her compatriot following two wins and a third in four races on day two, although she is a little way back on 23 points.
In the 49er class, Bart Lambriex and Floris van der Werken remain the team to beat. The world champions were not quite as dominant as on day one but are still eight points clear of second.
Their closest challengers are now Australia’s Thomas Needham and Joel Turner, who won the opener before finishing third in the other two heats.
