Day 2 of the 2025 Rooster International Europe Class Master & Youth European Championships at Hayling Island SC.
Thursday at HISC saw the second day of racing for the Master Championship and the first day of racing for the Youth Championships.
In the Masters Richard Cyril of France added back-to-back wins to take the overall lead after discarding a 3rd. He counts three wins and has a two point lead from Steve Cockerill, who struggled with a 15, 2, but was able to discard the 15th (for now) to take second overall.
Tom Morris was another competitor thankful for the discard, a whopping 55, he added a 2 and 3 to his day 1 ninth to take third overall.
Martin Kotte of Germany also discarded a 55 to move into fourth, with Jason Belben – yes he discards a 55 – now in fifth.
The points are very close for the top ten, so we can expect some more shake-outs after the next couple of races.
The Youth Championships started Thursday with racing in Male and Female fleets.
In the men Hugo Bejstrup (2, 1) of Denmark is tied for the lead with Pere Rentería (1, 2) on 3 pts, with another Dane, Valdemar Juul (3, 6) third and Rasmus Foxby-Jacobsen (4, 8) fourth.
In the women there was some confusion in their first race, with the whole fleet sailing the wrong course, and having to resail.
After that was sorted, Spain heads the leaderboard with Emma Cabre (1, 1) first, Sara Ayats (2, 2) second and Leonor Romero (3, 4) third.
No British Youth entries. All three championship fleets will race Friday.
