The 29er World Championships at the Weymouth & Portland National Sailing Academy took an enforced layday due to the strong winds on Wednesday.

The 200+ fleet is now in final gold, silver, bronze and emerald fleets, for the final two days, each scheduled for four races today from 11:00 hrs.
Ben Crafoord and Jacob Marks of Australia lead with 8 pts, second are Hugo Revil and Karl Devaux of France with 10 pts and third Spain’s Mateo and Simon Codoñer on 11 Pts.
