Under a black flag, the fleet got started in a building seabreeze. Zbogar (SLO) still leads, but the scoreboard has tightened up–just one point behind is Jonathan Lobert (FRA) and Ed Wright (GBR is just another two points back.
After Monday’s poor showing of breeze, Tuesday (Day 2) brought a gorgeous seabreeze to the anxiously awaiting fleet at the Finn European Championship in Warnemunde, Germany. Vasilij Zbogar (SLO) quickly pulled ahead to first, with Ivan Kljakovic Gaspic (CRO) and Andrew Murdoch (NZL) in second and third, respectively. Watch the three races here.
