DAY 6: TEAM BUNDOCK/ASHBY NEW F18 WORLD CHAMPIONS 2005
Team Darren Bundock and Glenn Asbhy best F18 Sailors of the World.
Hoek van Holland, 15 july 2005

Last Final day changes the overall standing completely.

Defending champions Darren Bundock and Glenn Ashby sailed impressively
during this worldchampionship in the Netherlands. After the lost
thursday where there was no wind, the final day was decisive and full
of surprises. Team Kenbeek/Brouwer were leading this morning but lost
the lead because of a BFDiskwalification in the second race today.
Team Booth/Dercksen sailed very well today and climbed from 10 to the
second place.
The French Nissan Team Mourniac/Citeau sailed very consistent the whole
series but lost the third place to Christian and Helge Sach on a
Capricorn

This morning saw perfect conditions with 15-18 knots of wind with blue
skies for race1. During the day, the wind went down and in the 3rd race
of the day, only achieved 5-7 knots. Because of the close situation on
points in the first 10 of the overall standings, a lot of risk was taken
by various crews which resulted in a lot of general recalls with black
flags.

The winners receive at 20.00 hours the winners trophy, presented by
sportsauthority Erica Terpstra.
