34 Irish Sailors at RS Feva Worlds

27th July 2010

34 Young Irish sailors are taking part at the 2010 RS Feva Worlds, in Carnac, France.

The 140-boat fleet was broken into four groups for the first day of racing yesterday in 9-12 knots, with Irish crews in the top five in three out of four groups.

Racing continues today, with three races scheduled per day every day between now and Friday.

The event is being updated live on the RS Feva Worlds website, rsfeva.org/worlds and we'll bring you updated results on the Irish teams as they progress from the group stages to silver and gold fleets.
