2.4mR Racing - 2013 IFDS Sailing World Championships

Published on Aug 30, 2013

Racing got underway today in Kinsale for the Cork County Council IFDS World Sailing Championships in glorious sunshine after yesterday's sailing was postponed due to light winds. Conditions were initially looking poor this morning and the competitors were held ashore. However after an hour of waiting the Race Committee lowered the postponement flag and the sailors headed out to the race course.

Commenting on today's racing Peter Crowley Principal Race Officer for the Sonar stated "It was great to get three races sailed today as we are now only one race down after yesterday's postponement. It was very competitive out there today but it is early days and it is all to play for".

On the 2.4mR course, two races were completed when the wind eventually filled in.

On the 2.4mR course it was not a good day for London 2012 Gold medallist Helena Lucas (UK) who finished down the fleet in 13th overall with 6th and 20th. Heiko Kroger from Germany was the silver medallist in Kinsale while the overnight leader in the 2.4mR is Bijlard (The Netherlands).

Sonar Racing - 2013 IFDS Sailing World Championships

Published on Aug 30, 2013

On the second day of racing, 18 boat Sonar fleet were the first to get going with their Race 4 of the regatta.

Ten-time Irish Paralympian John Twomey and his crew Ian Costello and Anthony Hegarty got off to a good start and were third around the first windward mark. The wind picked up to between 16 and 18 knots but as the fleet approached the leeward gate Jens Koker from Germany had a collision with the Norwegian team helmed by Aleksander Wang-Hansen.

The Germans did a 720-penalty turn but unfortunately both their boat and the Norwegian boat had been damaged and they both had to retire from the race. Bruno Jourdren from France was first through the gate with his crew of Eric Flageul and Nicolas Vimont-Vicary, followed by Rick Doerr (USA), Udo Hessels (The Netherlands), John Twomey (Ireland), John Robertson (GBR) and David Barnes (New Zealand).

The leaders stayed in the same positions until the end of the race which saw Jourdren taking his second win of the regatta, maintaining his place at the top of the leader board.

All 18 boats got off to a clear start for the second race, followed by Doerr and Hessels, respectively.

In the final sonar race of the day, Hessels crossed the line first, followed by Jourdren and Twomey.

Jourdren leads the overall standings in the sonar class, followed by Hessels and Australia's Colin Harrison.

The Sonar, first built in 1979, was born out of a desire to find a boat to boost the number of people taking part in club racing. Bruce Kirby, designer of the Sonar, was so pleased with his new keelboat he claimed: "The Sonar may well be the best boat I've ever designed."
