NO WIND STOPS PLAY ON RACE DAY 2 AT 420 WORLDS

11
Aug 2018

The Race Committee played a waiting game until 1430 hours on race day 2 at the 420 Worlds, Newport, Rhode Island, USA, before making the call that there would be no racing for the day.

2018 420 Open, Women and U17 World Championships
ALL EVENT INFORMATION

Saturday’s race day 2 dawned with rain and very little wind. As the rain eased, there was hope the wind would fill in, but it was a non-starter.

Instead, teams chilled out in the boat park, played cards, showed off their dance skills and hoped for breeze.

Overnights standings from race day 1 remain, and racing will resume on Sunday 12 August 2018. Three races are scheduled for all fleets with warning signal at 1155 for the 420 Open Yellow, then Open Blue, Women and U17.

After racing on Sunday, teams will get a great opportunity to hear from some of the USA's top sailing stars about their journey in elite sailing. Cory Sertl, Rome Kirby, Nick Dana and Meg Myles will share insights on how they made it to the top of their game across America's Cup, Olympic, Ocean Race and Pro Sailing.

Follow the racing via our live blog and Championship App.

On Saturday evening the annual General Assembly Meeting of the 420 Class took place - and a report to follow.
