Santander 2014 ISAF Worlds - Day 5 Highlights

It was a tough fifth day of racing for all of the fleets at the Santander 2014 ISAF Sailing World Championships with a challenging up and down wind playing havoc across the seven race courses.

It was scheduled to be a Super Tuesday with all of the fleets apart from the Women’s RS:X scheduled to take to the water but the schedule did not quite go to plan with abandonments, strong current and a fickle breeze challenging the Race Committees.

All of the fleets managed to complete some racing with the Men’s RS:X and Women’s 470 rounding off their Qualification Series, the Laser and Laser Radial continued their gold fleet racing and the remaining fleets resumed qualification.

Check out some highlights from the fifth day here…
