#PERTH2011 – Although Ryan Seaton and Matt McGovern are discarding 12th scored in today's sixth race of the 49er world championships, the Belfast lough pairing stay solidly in the top ten overall. Their first time bid for qualifcation at next year's London Olympics stays on target too as the regatta approaches the half way stage. They lie eighth overall dropping three places from a stunning opening day where they finished second in the first race of the series.
