Thursday - Youth Worlds - How to Follow - Day 3
Day 3 of the Youth Sailing World Championships in Langkawi welcomes the SL16 to the water with lighter winds.
Day 3 of the Youth Sailing World Championships in Langkawi welcomes the SL16 to the water with lighter winds.
Following a shipping delay, the sailors take great credit by getting the SL16 ready to race. Out on the water yesterday afternoon for some training, they begin their racing with four scheduled for each of the split fleet.
They and the other sailors again have 30 degree temperatures and the sun shining down on them. Coming in from the east, the wind drops a little to 16 knots in the morning and easing off later in the afternoon to around 11 knots. Although the wind has dropped, staying the same is the calm and relatively flat water from a light current.
