Laser 4.7 - European Championship 2009 - Helsinki FIN - Day 4

Thunderstorms with winds above 30 kn prevented all further racing yesterday. However, the qualification phase is over as the number of sailed regattas is sufficient to start with the final race in Gold- and Silverfleets for the 148 participants. The 82 girls continue their racing in one fleet. With two race wins in 5 heats, Patricia Coro ESP age 17, a former Optimist European Champion, is on top of the girls rankings, followed by Viktorija Andrulyte LTU and Kim Pletikos SLO. In the Boys' fleet, the Italians Davide Domeneghetti and Giovanni Coccolutto dominate the races. Harald Faste NOR and Etienne Le Pen FRA follow on the ranks 3 and 4. The short report.
