Botticini Hits the Lead as Fleet is Finals Bound
Sandefjord, Norway
The second day of the WASZP competition in Sandefjord saw moderate conditions and a reasonable sea state on the outer course. This shift in weather led to a day focused as much on boat handling as strategy, providing a fresh challenge for the 180 WASZP sailors.
Italian sailor Ettore Botticini has demonstrated remarkable consistency throughout the qualifying series, securing the lead as the fleet heads into the Gold & Silver fleet races. Hawaiian Gavin Ball follows closely in second place, despite a black flag in the final race costing him valuable points. Spaniard Alberto Hernandez is tied with Ball and sits just two points ahead of Norwegian Markus Berthet, making for a tight competition.
