#oppy – Strong winds continue to make conditions difficult at the UK Optimist Nationals in Pwllheli, Wales, but the Senior Fleet managed to complete two races yesterday, with one race for the Juniors.
This means that the event is now split into Gold and Silver fleets for the last day's racing.
Another win for Douglas Elmes means he retains his third position overall (first non-UK) in the Senior fleet; in the Junior fleet, Richard McGinley leads the Irish in 6th place, closely followed by James McCann who had a first yesterday and jumped to 7th.
With wind conditions relatively unchanged, sailors are hoping for a good day's racing today
