Skunked (again) at Moth World Championship

Published on October 17th, 2013

Kaneohe, HI (October 17, 2013) – Racing was abandoned on the fourth day of the McDougall + McConaghy Moth World Championship when sufficient wind failed to develop. The event has been plagued by light winds, with no racing on day one and mostly sub-10 knot winds on days two and three. Seven races have been completed, with racing for the 80-boat fleet to continue Friday and conclude on Saturday. 2009 World Champ Bora Gulari (USA) currently leads 2011 Worlds Champ Nathan Outteridge (AUS) by five points.
