South Africans Hold Lead At Mirror Worlds

There was some exciting close to shore racing in a strengthening south easterly on day four of the Mirror World Championship in Villiersdorp, South Africa.

After a general recall on the first race on the sausage course, we moved to the trapezoidal course which provided some very exciting racing for both competitors on the water and spectators on shore.

Congratulations to the Vivier brothers on the best combined performance of the day and to Just Jinger, Michiel Rust & Oliver Gosnell on being the most improved boat on the day. The Robinsons still lead the regatta, in Mirrorjuana, followed by the UK boats, Peanut & Ship Happens.

Overall top five after 11 races
1. Michaela Robinson / Ryan Robinson, (RSA), 31
