Peter Peet, from The Netherlands, will go into the final day of the 2023 Finn European Masters, at Campione del Garda, with a nine-point lead over Britain’s John Greenwood.
While Olof Lundqvist, from Sweden, moves up to third.
Race wins on the third day went to Greenwood and France’s Valarian Lebrun on what was another very hot day on Lake Garda, with the wind increasing during the day from 6 to 9 knots.
It was another extremely tricky day on the water with the Ora developing late and slowly.
After a few delays the first start under black flag removed around 20 boats, but the wind was not fully established and there were a lot of new faces at the front.
Maintaining anything like consistency here has been near on impossible, with pretty much all sailors picking up high points at some point.
Friday is the final day of the Finn European Masters with two more races scheduled.
