2009 420 Junior European Championships
ALL EVENT INFORMATION

Another day of waiting(- and it is getting really hot today, so tents of boat covers and useful keelboat hulls have been brought into use (the USA had an elaborate wigwam!). The top ten 470s have been called to the water in the hope of getting a Medal Race, and the 420s finally got the signal at 15.00 that the Championship is finished.

Much frenetic activity now in the Boat Park, of course, but at 18.00 the Prize Giving and Closing Cerremony, at the next door Hotel Uni.

We might have more later, but, meanwhile, thank you for your patience, and we hope you will keep watching www.420sailing.org in the future.

In a few days time, when it is possible to make time on an internet connection with good bandwidth, we will put up Photo Galleries for the Worlds and for the Junior Europeans.

Saturday

After a series of notices from the Race Committee through the day regarding posponements, racing was eventually abandoned for the day. Jim Saltonstall had a very well attended third meeting with the sailors. We hope that wind may come tomorrow.
