2016 Yanmar Moth World Championships – Light winds dominated on the final day of racing at the 2016 Yanmar Moth Worlds, with just one race completed.
Paul Goodison (GBR) crossed the finish line in second place, which was more than enough to claim the World title by three points over Chris Rashley. Silver to Bashley and bronze to Robert Greenhalgh, who claimed the race win, but it was too late to close the points gap on his rivals.
Behind the British top three, Australia’s Scott Babbage finished fourth.
The second race of the day got underway but was abandoned after the first windward mark, due to a dying breeze.
The Yanmar Moth Worlds 2016 took place from 23-29 May in Hayama, Japan. The 2017 Moth World Championships will take place on Lake Garda, Italy in the summer 2017.
