2017 Sunfish Youth World Championship Brant Beach SF Regatta Pictures
Light and shifty air didn't slow down this group of Youth champion sailors!

What started out as light air (5-7 mph) coming for the N/NE for Race 1 turned into a little heavier air (6-8 mph) coming from the S/SW. With the windward mark moving in a semi-circle, youth sailors followed the flow and sailed well despite the shifty conditions.



In Race One on Day 2 Angello Giuria of Peru moved up to first place in the total two day standings. Not far behind was Ignacio Antequera Erro of Spain who is second in the total two day standings. Ignacio scored a bullet in Race One. In the third place standings on Day Two is Alejandro Mago of Peru who moved up from six place in Day One. Miranda Paz, our Top Female from Day One, remains Top Female on Day Two with a fourth place standing for the two day total. In fifth place on Day Two, with a bullet in Race Five, is Simon Gomez. Clemente Sequel of Chile got a bullet in Race Six on Day Two placing him in sixth place overall on Day Two.



Three more races will be held tomorrow to determine the final winners. All 21 competitors are eager to test their sailing prowess in perhaps air that's a bit heavier. But what will be will be. And, so far, they have been adjusting perfectly!
