It’s day three of the 2016 Aon Youth World Sailing Championships and we have another change in wind for the 389 competitors from 65 nations.
There is a 12-15 knots forecast for the Hauraki Gulf in the afternoon, but there is very light winds to get through first in the morning. Some delays are expected as very light breeze welcomes the sailors to the morning session, but as always the sun is shining and the scenery is spectacular for the 2016 Aon Youth Worlds.
