470 World Championship - Tight at the top
Day three of the 470 World Championships off the Royal Danish Yacht Club’s club house in Rungsted, Denmark and it is the Dutch who are stealing the show.
Having sailed three races yesterday, today has been a comparatively short one with just one to sail, the final of the qualifying series.
The Costers brothers went into today’s racing joint leaders with Croats Šime Fantela and Igor Marenic, and came first in the yellow group, their third bullet out of six races. They now have now pulled into the lead of the Men’s division at the end of the qualifying round.
'It is nice to be right up there,' enthused Sven Coster. 'We had a good start at the committee boat and we played the right shifts and we came in with more pressure.' Today with the course set more offshore, the current was less of a factor, he says, although counter current on the windward legs made for a long race. Brother Calle added: 'There was a lot less pressure on the left side of the course, so the guys who were stuck out there really lost out a lot on their first beat.'
