Gutting. That can't be fun. Well done to the Greek guy though. And most of the top seeds well down the rankings too.

The long lens cameras do foreshorten things horrilbly

Who's the guy in commentary box with Shirley?

Sounds like good news from the Yngling course though- from 11th at the final windward mark to 2nd at the finish!

Richard Simmonds is doing the commentary with Shirley.

Sounds like the Yngling girls have fought back to second after being last at the first mark!

Don't know who the King Edward is (commentator), but just said that GBR is 2nd in the Yngling after been dead last at the previous mark

I thought the two classes were supposed to be on seperate race areas? The fleets just sailed through each other...
