Ireland's Finn Lynch, lying second overall, is in hold mode in Barcelona this morning as the final day of the ILCA7/Laser World Championships is delayed due to lack of wind.
The Barcelona Sailing Centre Race Committee reports a maximum of three knots of wind from the north and northeast plus two-metre waves.
They are conditions that have been judged "Not Sailable" by the Race Committee, and currently, the fleet of 139 entries drawn from 44 countries is "waiting for better conditions".
Lynch is almost assured of Ireland's best ever Laser world Championship result, as Afloat reported earlier here but right now, with such a string of ultra-consistent scores already banked this week, the National Yacht Club ace has his eye on a much bigger prize.
Yesterday, in the trickiest of conditions, he chalked up a 7,2,1 in the first day of gold fleet racing to give himself the best possible tilt at the title.
