First day of the much ‘diced & sliced’ Olympic Classes Allianz Regatta in Medemblik stuttered into action on Wednesday.
Due to the coronavirus restrictions the National classes were split off to later in the year. Then the Olympic classes were split into two separate weeks to maintain sufficient space between competitors on shore.
So the first day saw the RSX (M&W), Laser, Radial and Nacra 17 make it to the water for the opening session.
Best of the British competitors was Lorenzo Chiavarini in the Laser (6,1) who leads tied on seven points with Filip Jurisic of Croatia and Zan Luka Zelko of Slovinia.
The only other British entry to feature with the leaders is Tokyo bound Tom Squires (2,3), second in the men’s RSX event, a good result in the light wind conditions.
Leader is Poland’s Piotr Myszka who won both races. In third place is Mattia Camboni of italy.
Not enjoying the light conditions was Britain’s Alison Young (22, 28), also Tokyo bound, in 21st place after two races in the women’s Radial event.
Leading is Marie Barrue (2,2) of France with four points, with Emma Plassschaert of Belgium in second with 12 points and third Marit Bouwmeester of Holland with 14 points.
Only three teams turned out in the Nacra 17, with Laila van der Meer and Bjarne Bouwer of Holland winning all three races.
Racing continues for these classes through to Sunday 6 June.
