Sail-World.com : RS Eurocup - RS700s at Carnac
RS Eurocup - RS700s at Carnac
|
Zhik RS Eurocup 2011 today saw RS700's race in a truly beautiful location with impeccable management on and off the water.
Out on the water there were 18 700’s who made the trip from France, Germany, Luxemburg and the UK to make for some truly international flavour. Racing conditions on Saturday don’t really get any better as there was brilliant sunshine, a 10 to 12 knot breeze and blue water. Sunday gave an equally glorious amount of sunshine but a lighter six to eight knot breeze, so something for everyone so far.
Mid way through the event Jerry Wales is leading counting four firsts and a second closely followed by Jon Heissig counting a first, two seconds a seventh and a ninth but when the two discards kick in its going to be close.
The French sailors have also been showing great form with |Cedroc Fraboulet currently laying in third counting three third place amongst his results. Jocelyn Kerbiguet is lying in fifth and Mathiue Guihot in sixth. Richard Allen is always there or there about and consistently amongst the leading group lying in forth. Ian Nolan is placed seventh and deserved to win the second race after leading for most of the race until a cruel shift handed the race to Jerry Wales.
The forecast for the next two days is showing winds of 10 -12 knots and upward, and with five races to go any of the top 5 are in with a shout of overall victory. One feels that Jon Heissig is playing the stalking horse and is just about to show his hand, or maybe to much time in the RS100 is affecting his form. Cedric Fraboulet is also very well placed and local knowledge could be to his advantage – it's all to play for.
