Laser Radial

Rutger van Shaardenburg (NED) leads the Laser fleet headed into Wednesday.

Halfway Highlights

Here’s how the fleets are shaking out as they head into hump day at the Sailing World Cup Miami.

Young and Hungry

24-year old Anne-Marie Rindom leads the Laser Radial charge for the Danish sailing team, and is taking on the biggest names in the class.

A the end of racing Monday, the 49er fleet had completed six races, and New Zealand's Peter Burling and Blair Tuke know there is plenty of racing yet to come.
Tuke says, “We’re halfway through the fleet racing series of the regatta. We had two races yesterday which were good for us, just a nice solid start, and it was good to get out and put the hammer down today and get three 1sts.”
“Not such a great race in the second one, but it was pleasing the way we bounced back and were able to take to more 1sts. We’re happy but we also know there’s plenty more work to do this week.”
