The first of the year’s ISAF Grade 1 European regattas brought a record number of entries and well over 1,000 sailors to Hyères, France. After a disappointing performance in Palma, the Brits came back with a bang, claiming two gold medals a result which consolidates their position as top nation in the latest release of the ISAF World Sailing Rankings.

Less than three months remains until the start of the ISAF Sailing World Championships in Cascais, Portugal and the first of the year’s major European regattas brought all the top stars of the Olympic Classes to Hyères. Light conditions through the early part of the regatta made for tricky conditions and threw up a number of surprises before the easterly breeze arrived for the last two days of racing, providing perfect conditions for the Medal Races.
The shifty breeze through the early part of the regatta left many of the pre-regatta favourites languishing down the leaderboard, including world #1 crew Christina BASSADONE and Saskia CLARK (GBR) and double World Champions Marcelien DE KONING and Lobke BERKHOUT (NED) in the Women’s 470 fleet. Whilst the World Champs were able to fight back, the Brits could not and consequently the two trade places at the top of the Rankings, the one change across the eleven world #1 spots.

The other British world #1 Paul GOODISON (GBR) does hold on to his top spot and is the Rankings’ longest leader, having been at the summit of the Laser Rankings for nine consecutive Ranking releases. The Brits also have one other #2 spot and two #3s giving them top nation in the Rankings ahead of Germany, who together with Australia and Spain, hold two top spots.

There is now a short break until the ISAF Grade 1 Holland Regatta from 23-27 May
