Sailing has its own World Cup, finally! Like football in 1930 and rugby in 1987, the SSL Gold Cup is designed to crown the best sailing nation of all! The World Top 56 countries, selected on their SSL Nation ranking, will battle their way through to raise the coveted and only Sailing World Cup trophy.
Another day in glorious Gran Canaria, with more sunshine, more warmth and a beautiful 10 to 13 knot breeze for the powerful SSL 47 yachts to devour.
Day 3 was arguably the most important of each round, setting the tone for the double points race and defining the leaderboard.
We are beautifully poised ahead of today’s Double Points races, with most teams showing form over the first three days. A remarkable 9 of the 16 teams have won a race in the 1/8 Finals so far, and Brazil – with its Olympic medal laden team – isn’t one of them!
Anything could happen on Fantastic Friday!
