ACCBank Cork Week at the Royal Cork Yacht Club - Day 3

12-18 July 2008
A finely balanced leader-board at the front of the Super Zero class at
ACCBank Cork Week was the outcome of the third day of racing that sees
Niklas
Zennstrom's TP52 Ran maintain a one-point lead over Dan Meyer's Judel
Vrolijk 66 Numbers. Both boats had a win apiece on the
Windward-Leeward
course in the light airs.
On the same course, Richard Matthews' GP42 Oystercatcher XXVI has
extended
its lead of Class Zero leaving Dun Laoghaire entry Tiamat in second
place.
The Mills 43 features a Cork afterguard with Maurice O'Connell and Mark
Mansfield joining owner Tim Costello for the week.
The single event discard that kicked in after five races saw Dave
Dwyer's
marinerscove.ie move into the lead of 21-boat Class One following a
consistent day with a third and second places.
Elsewhere in the 26 classes, the entire fleet of J109's was reinstated
following Tuesday's Harbour Course that saw the 26 boats scored as 'Did Not
Finish' when the five-hour race time limit expired. The solution was
later
agreed between the race committee and the International Jury following
the
36-mile race.
Racing continues on Thursday with Fleet D for the Beneteau 31.7 and IRC
handicap classes 4, 5 and 6 competing on the Harbour Course. Weather
forecasts suggest slightly fresher winds while Friday's finale may see
a
return of the 20+ knot winds for the big boats' turn at the acclaimed
Slalom
course.
