The third day of the 470 sailing world championship was held today (Tuesday) in Sdot Yam, with the participation of 60 pairs from around the world, when the top Israeli teams had a bad day and left the top ten, from which they enter the medal cruise.
Two cruises were held, with clear skies and moderate winds of 8-10 knots, with the fleet divided into the gold house with the first 30 qualifying, and all the rest competing in the silver house.
Nitai Hason and Noa Lasri finished the cruises in 7th and 16th places, being in 16th place overall, with 55 points, 8 points away from the top ten.
"We did a pretty good first cruise, we made some critical decisions and the second cruise was not good, which we had to pursue, when it was also short in the distribution of roles and we are fighting for every point, there are still two long days and we need every cruise to arrive sharp", said the side from the end.
Those who would like to erase this day, are the duo Gil Cohen and Noam Matari, when they went into the water in eighth place and returned from it in 18th place, when in the first cruise they were 18 and in the second they had to retire because of a part of the boat that broke and accumulated another 31 negative points.
Those who continue to lead the championship and seem to be on the sure path to gold, are the German duo Louisa Wenzer and Flip Ottenreit, with only 21 negative points, after finishing the day's cruises in 6th and 4th place.
