Henry Wetherell dominated the first day of the 2025 International Moth UK Championship at the Royal Torbay YC.
Wetherell posted a 2 1 2 1 scoreline to take a four point lead from Dylan Fletcher 3 2 3 2, with Nick Robins in third on 18 pts.
The increasingly strong wind conditions provided top speeds and hectic downwind conditions.
Kyle Stoneham was one to taste both with wins in the first and third races before gear failure in the final race of the day, he is 8th overall before the discard.
Four more races scheduled for Friday.
