RC44 World Championship 2010 Lanzarote, Canary Islands.
Paul Cayard onboard Katusha reports:
The first three races of the fleet racing part of the RC44 World Championship were held today in very light winds here in Lanzarote.
BMW Oracle led the results with a 2, 5, 2 and USA 17, the winner of the Match Racing, is in second place. Artemis had a good day and is in fourth place and we on Katusha had a tough day and are in 12th. Ironically, the only boat behind us is the other Russian team, Synergy.
Racing continues tomorrow and the forecast isn't much better. Normally the Canary Islands are blessed with steady trade winds but the Azores high has been displaced this week by a series of low pressure systems and associated fronts. Basically, we are in the wake of all that which is just a mess of turbulance.
