Second day of racing at the 470 European Championship in Vilamoura, Portugal, with two more races completed.
A change of pace, with a light breeze that allowed some new faces in the leading groups.
In the women’s fleet World Champions Silvia Mas Depares and Patricia Cantero move into the lead, two points ahead of Camille Lecointre and Aloise Retoraz of France.
Best of the day were Brazil’s Fernanda Olivera and Ana Barbachan who took ‘back to back’ race wins to jump into third overall.
Not a good day for the British pair, Hannah Mills and Eilidh McIntyre, who drop to sixth overall after discarding a 17, but having to count an 11 . . . the light conditions or Jet lag?
In the men’s event, the Kiwi pair Paul Snow-Hansen and Daniel Willcock take over the lead, two points ahead of Jordi Xammer and Nicolas Rodriguez of Spain.
Mathew Belcher and and Will Ryan of Australia move into third . . . one point ahead of Sweden’s Anton Dahlberg and Fredrik Bergstrom, and Britain’s Luke Patience and Chris Grube who are tied on 21 points.
In the Mixed Fleet, Nitai Hasson and Saar Tami of Israel retain their lead.
They are now five points clear of Britain’s Amy Seabright and James Taylor, with the USA pair Louisa Nordstrom and Trevor Bornarth having a great day, a 4, 4, lifted them in to third overall.
