Race day 3 brought sunny and warm weather, but still light thermical winds, very shifty and therefore difficult sailing.
Time for the best Yngling Sailors to proof their sailing skills and tactical routine to handle these conditions.
Dutch sailor Gert Roukema (NED365) showed this very very well and is still on top of the scoreboard with a 8-6-7 series today (17 points), closely followed by local sailor an former Yngling world champion Rudi Mayr / AUT 299 (UYC Wolfgangsee). Mayr won the first race of today and finished two times on 5th place, has now also 17 points overall. On third place - the next dutch team - Kai Moorman /NED 335 with 22 pts. overall and a solid series of 7-8-3.
