Pieter-Jan Postma, from The Netherlands, is leading the 2025 Finn World Masters fleet of 307 Finns from 27 countries.
After everyone sailed two more races on Tuesday in Medemblik. Postma leads with four race wins, France’s Laurent Hay (3, 2) is now second with Germany’s Fabian Lemmel (2, 6) in third.
Of the Brits Nick Craig (7, 7) had a better day moving up to 21st, and Allen Burrell (5, 14) is now 43rd. Lawrence Crispen was actually the best scoring with a 5 and 6, but still counts an earlier 75th and is 63rd overall.
With eight starts again sailed in an offshore shifty breeze, though more stable than Monday. The conditions on Day 2 were again sublime, with a warm 8-10 knots in the first race, with wall-to-wall sunshine, increasing to 12-15 in the second with more cloud cover.
Wednesday will be an easier day for the fleet with just one afternoon race, after the Annual Finn Masters meeting in the morning, and followed by the Masters Dinner in the evening.
