Schumann Leading After Three Races

Three time Olympic Gold medallist Jochen Schumann (SUI) is leading the 5.5m World Championships taking place at Flensburg Sailing Club, Denmark

Defending champion Jurg Menzi (SUI) is currently lying second overall, with last years Bronze medallist Gavin Mc Kinney (BAH) in third. Silver medallist at the 2000 Worlds Hans-Peter Schmid (SUI) is currently down in seventh position, and clearly has some catching up to do to secure a podium position this year.
