The Danish Pair of Hennriette Koch and Sebastian Bay continue to dominate the fleet with a clear points lead over the nearest British pair of Bernard and Andrew Gammon

A dull misty morning (Wednesday 15 August) greeted competitors for the first day of the finals at the Gul 405 Nationals at Plym YC.

The fleet went out only to be sent back to shore after an hour in the rain and no wind. Eventually the fleet left for Plymouth Sound and two races were completed in very trying conditions.
