The lead up regatta is now finished with the top 5 being Glenn Ashby, Steve Brewin, Andrew Landenberger, James Spithill and Brad Collett. It was pretty hectic with 83 boats on the water with three heavy races and two lighter. Can't wait for the Worlds now though. They begin in earnest on Sunday 4th.
Full details of the event so far are on the website listed above. I am next to the sailor who got the lightning in the boat park he was standing 6 feet from me and I didn't get any shock while he fell like a stone. Very scary stuff - but he has been fully checked out and is fine now.
