Nacra 17s @Rio 2015 Test Event: Day 1
Credit Pedro Martinez/Sailing Energy. More at their fb page. After 3 races held today at the 2016 Olympic sailing venue, Gemma Jones & Jason Saunders are leading ahead of the new powerhouse crews from Denmark & Germany.
The Class is becoming even more competitive than last year, aside Billy & Marie who are in another league (scored only 3,3,7 today… what a ‘shame’ ) the rest of the top crews can win at any given time.

If I correctly read the results the overall winner this year is a Hobie16
