Ryan McKillen's Surge wins the day and takes the overall lead at the halfway point of the M32 World Championship in Miami. TUUCI and ChinaOne.Ningbo aren't far behind!
Race One
ChinaOne.Ningbo was first off the line and only extended from there. Helmed by Phil Robertson, the Chinese entry crossed the finish with a commanding 56-second lead—a massive margin in the M32 Class, where races average just 17 minutes and are typically decided by seconds.
Race Two
Surge dominates start to finish. Convexity did not start (DNS) due to hardware damage.
Race Three
Surge wins again and pulls into the overall lead. The Vikings proved once again they're the nice guys on the block—requesting a damage delay for Convexity that gave their rivals just enough time to get back in the game.
Race Four
ChinaOne.Ningbo takes another commanding win, putting three boats between themselves and Surge. The leaderboard is now tight tight tight—just one point separates the top three teams after nine races: Surge (34 points), TUUCI (35), and ChinaOne.Ningbo (36). The championship is officially a brawl at the top.
Race Five
When it comes to the growing Robertson vs. Canfield rivalry, Race Five was a mirror image of Race Four. This time, it was Surge on top and ChinaOne.Ningbo settling for fifth. TUUCI kept things steady with another third-place finish, posting back-to-back 3s to stay firmly in the fight.
It was a picture-perfect day on Biscayne Bay, with partly cloudy skies, a steady 8-10 knot breeze, and gusts reaching 12.
After racing, teams enjoyed a North Sails Party at the regatta headquarters immediately after sailing - complete with BACARDÍ cocktails and TUUCI hospitality.
Halfway through! 9 races to go. See you tomorrow.
