Krister Bergstrom/Thomas Moss Win 2000 MSC International 505 World
Championship
Once again 505 sailors turned up in the morning at the Point Yacht Club ready
to race, but the strong offshore breeze was back, and the RC canceled racing
for the day, leaving the event a five race series. This makes yesterday's
leading team, Krister Bergstrom/Thomas Moss of Sweden the 2000 International
505 World Champions. Bergstrom also won the 505 worlds in 1987, '88 and '89
and again in '91. He has now won more 505 World Championships than anyone
else. The Bergstrom/Moss team scored finishes of 2, 4, 2, 1, 1 for 6 points
after dropping their 4th. Mike Martin -- the 1999 World Champion crew -- and
Steve Bourdow -- two time Flying Dutchman World Champion -- of California
were second with 13.7 points. 1999 World Champion driver, Howard Hamlin,
sailing with Peter Alarie were 3rd with 21.7 points, just ahead of 49er
silver medalist Ian Barker, 4th with 23.4 points.
