Howth Yacht Club's Aoife Hopkins had her best day so far at the Laser Radial (ILCA 6) World Championships in Oman scoring 15th in the single race of the day.
The light breeze that arrived for the day came after a delay of two hours and only permitted one race before darkness fell.
Hopkins is currently 27th from 63 thanks to her 15th today in a race where there were ten black flag disqualifications.
Three races had been planned to get the event back on schedule but now organisers hope to have extra races on Saturday to catch before Sunday and Mondays' final races.
Belgium's Emma Plasscheart won the single race and has a narrow lead over Germany's Julia Buesselberg who was one of the disqualifications.
