Bermuda sailors sit near top of leaderboard in Junior Gold Cup
Bermuda’s Miguel Power sits second after three races in the Renaissance Re Junior Gold Cup.
Power finished runner-up in the first two races of the day and third in the final event but that was still not enough to lead the fleet as a result of the exploits of Sweden’s Cornelia Baldock Frost, who won the opening two contests before finishing second to Great Britain’s Hugo Fletcher in the third race.
There is plenty of Bermuda representation inside the top ten with Nina Gotfredsen and Noah Amaradasa occupying fourth and fifth overall, with Evan Davis in eighth.
There are seven countries represented in the top ten of the 38-strong field with sailors from Argentina (Luca Barrutta), Bahamas (Finley Mckinney-Lambert), New Zealand (Will Fyfe) and Canada (Jacob Jingbo Tu) all making strong starts to the regatta.
Bermuda have 25 sailors in action, including Harry Brown (12th), Rory Savage (13th), James Ganal (14th), Thomas McBain (19th), Finbar Lohan (20th), Emma Brown (21st), Miguel Leite (22nd), Benjamin DeCouto (23rd), Walker Smith (24th), Sean Pedro (26th), Heath Meyeres (27th), Jesse Savage (29th), Rex Henagulph (30th), Bram Wiseman (31st) and Aaron Riker (32nd).
Tadhg Gotfredsen, Alfie Jansma, James Wallace, Jacob Beale, Benjamin Stones and Chloe McBrearty are tied for 33rd after failing to complete any of the three races.
