Trieste Challenge Day Two


Mirsky Racing Team
Mirsky Racing Team's Kinley Fowler reports from the Trieste Challenge on day two.

'Once again light winds prevailed today as we only just managed to finish the first round robin. We finished on 2 wins, losing only to Mascalzone Latino's Jes Gram Hansen after some small tactical errors.

'Three of the 4 teams are on 2 wins, with French Sailing Team's Damien Iehl losing all of his matches. Despite his scorecard, Iehl and his team are sailing impressively and all of the races have been tight. Although we had a significant lead in our race against him, he managed to close up the gap on the final run to mere inches which would have put us in last.

'The Race Committee is hoping to complete the second round robin tomorrow, which may be a bit ambitious if the wind stays the same. However, we are on the losing side of the 3 way tie and would have to race Gram Hansen in the semi finals if it is bypassed. We feel that he has the strongest team here, so as far as we are concerned, the more racing the better!'

A special thanks to Line7, Harken and the Royal Perth Yacht Club for their support.
