After an eleven-race series at the ILCA 6 European Championships, defending title-holder Rocco Wright (Howth Yacht Club) took home the bronze medal after a close final day of racing in Andora, Italy.
Mattia Cesana of Italy edged ahead to become the new ILCA6 men's champion.
Along with Greek sailor Athanasios Kyfidi who took the silver on tie-break, the leading trio had enjoyed a week-long duel at the front of their 71-boat event across a range of conditions.
Good breeze of around 10 knots and a good swell allowed for three more races on the final day.
