Nick Craig wins after epic final day

Bandol turned on everything for the final day of the OK Dinghy Autumn Trophy. Two races in a building westerly breeze, great waves and wall to wall sunshine capped off an excellent event on the Cote d'Azur.

Nick Craig took two more wins to make it a clean sweep though was led at the first mark by Jan-Dietmar Dellas and then Greg Wilcox in the second.

Bandol is famous for these conditions and it's what keeps bringing everyone back. And the fleet will be back again next October just before the European Championship in Palma.
