Extreme Sailing Series™: Dramatic double capsize on penultimate day of Cardiff Act
Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
Cardiff Bay was alive with action today, as two boats capsized within moments of each other on the Extreme Sailing Series™ racecourse.
Charging downwind on the third race of the day (race 19), the Omani boat and Team Wales were both caught by strong 20 knot gusts that caused their hulls to become submerged and a cartwheel capsize to ensue.
All crewmembers on Team Wales were accounted for and there were no injuries to anyone onboard. Although the boat was righted quickly, foil damage unfortunately prEvented the local wildcard team from competing for the rest of the day. With their boat recovered to shore, the #extremesailingseries technical teams began work to ensure the Welsh crew can compete on home waters on the final day of the #Event, Monday 27 August.
