Toby Aldous and Tom Armstrong are the new leaders after day 2 of the UK RS Feva Class 2021 National Championship at Hayling Island SC.
The Race Team did a great job to get the championship back on schedule with four races completed for both flights to complete the six race Qualifier Series.
Toby Aldous and Tom Armstrong were tied on points with overnight leaders Katy Jenkins and Amelie Hiscocks until the final (4th) flight race of the day.
Both teams had their hiccups, a BFD for Jenkins and Hiscocks in their first race of the day set them back, but steady scoring brought them back into contention.
While Aldous and Armstrong were front-runners until a tenth place in the third race of the day, required them to pull-out all the stops in final race to regain the initiative . . . which they did with their second win of the day, to finish as overall leaders.
Aldous and Armstrong now go into two days of Final Series racing with a two point lead ahead of Jenkins and Hiscocks.
While Millie Irish and Jess Powell – who dominated the Blue flight racing with four wins – are in third place, just one point off the leaders.
Other Yellow flight race winners were Holly Mitchell and Ella Jones (8th overall), and Felix Stewart and Liam Farrell (5th overall)
From Monday the fleet will split into gold and silver fleets for the final race series (6 races scheduled).
A boat’s championship score will be the total of her race scores from her final series races plus points equal to her qualifying–series rank.
