EST790 Lenny wins ranking finals-updated

27.9.2009

Partly cloudy, SW wind, with a velocity of 12 to 25 knots gave the fleet excellent sailing conditions for the last day. The day was for many teams the last sailing day of this season before the long dark winter months:-)

"Lenny" EST 790 helmed by Tõnu Tõniste continued their good pace snatching a 3rd, 1st and 1st today. These results gave them a 10 point win over "Rock City" EST 761 helmed by Tiit Vihul. Third was "Midnight Sun Sailing One" FIN 529 helmed by Sami Ekblad. They climbed to an overall third after sailing a win, 2nd and 6th place today. These left them only 4 points behind Rock City.
