Fifty three boats arrived at Mumbles on the Gower Peninsular near Swansea for the 2nd selection meeting for the 420 2005 World Championship. The fleet only managed 1 days racing because the weather on Sunday was too hostile to get the starts underway.

Tom Mallindine and James Clark continued to sail well, winning with two firsts and a second place, to follow their successes at the 1st selector meeting and the Youth Nationals last week. Matt Burge and Chris Evans, 2nd at last year’s nationals, picked up 3 good results to finish second ahead of Oliver Dix and Sam Maxfield.

The selection series is now just over halfway through with 9 races sailed and at least 8 scheduled for the final meeting at Hayling Island at the end of April. Mallindine and Clark are comfortably ahead in the open series with Hannah Mills and Peggy Webster, this years girls Youth Champions, leading the ladies. But the competition is still close for the other places in the teams.

Overall Results:

1st Tom Mallindine & James Clark 4pts
2nd Matt Burge & Chris 18pts
3rd Oliver Dix & Sam Maxfield 28pts
4th Paul Brotherton & Mari Shepherd 29pts
5th James Ellis & Dan Ellis 30pts 30pts
6th Fynn Sterritt & Matt Day 32pts
