Images by Robert Hajduk / World Sailing . Australian youths maintained the lead with only one more race completed the last day of racing. Will Cooley & Rebecca Hancock established a 22pts gap with the rest of the fleet and close the event with a bullet.
Second place overall for Titouan Petard & Marion Declef (FRA) and third for Silas Muhle & Levke Moller (GER). The German crew scored 5 bullets in the regatta but had some inconsistent results relegating their chances, either way experienced gained and a podium place for them it’s a great achievement.
Dante Cittadini who everuthing last season the Nacra 15 with Teresa Romairone, is now sailing with Maylen Muscia. They were 10th overall within the week but after 1,2,3 & 6 in the last races put them 5th overall showing they are adapting to sail together pretty well.
