U23 Finn World Championship at Lake Balaton, Hungary - Day 4 by Robert Deaves 15 Jul 01:25 BST 11-15 July 2021
Domonkos Ne meth moved into a 14 point lead at the U23 Finn World Championship for the Finn Silver Cup at Tihany on Lake Balaton on Wednesday after two more races were sailed. Levente Ra cz and Bence Ra cz are separated by just four points in second and third. There is just one day left to sail.
After a very hot and windless Tuesday, it was slightly cooler for Day 4 with a south-westerly breeze down the lake later in the day. An earlier attempt to start failed with no wind and the fleet went back to shore.
Patience was key on Day 3 of the U23 Finn World Championship for the Finn Silver Cup at Tihany on Lake Balaton. Unfortunately though, it remained unrewarded with no more races sailed, though the young sailors enjoyed swimming in the lake with temperatures up to 37 degrees.
So the results stand from Monday. There are two days left.
Andres Ivan Lloret Pe rez, from near Alicante in Spain is in sixth place overall and has travelled the farthest to compete in this regatta.
This is his last year as an U23, and it was a big trip to make it to Balaton. I like the Silver Cup because it s a nice regatta and this year in Balaton, it s a good place for racing. It s generally light winds but it s good and it s nice place to come to.
