2018 420 Class World Championship
Newport Rhode Island
August 7-15
Having hosted the Class World Championship in January this year at Fremantle, there was less enthusiasm from Australian Teams to travel to the East Coast of the USA for another World Championship so soon. However 4 teams from Australia made the long trek to Newport Rhode Island.
The teams were: Otto Henry / Tom Larkings, Ryan Littlechild / Jack Ferguson, Cole Tapper / Tyler Creevey - all racing in the Open Fleet - and Lucy Gray / Chloe Harper racing in the Ladies' Fleet.
VERY light winds greeted the fleets for all racing except the final day.
2 Teams made it through to the Gold Fleet finals - Henry/Larkings and Littlechild/Ferguson.
Henry/Larkings, in their first regatta together, struggled all week from being too heavy but with one race to go were still placed on the podium. An unfortunate capsize while leading the final and only windy race of the regatta pushed them from 2nd to 6th overall.
Littlechild/Ferguson put some good races onto the scoreboard but in their first season together lacked the consistency required to move up the ladder in the extremely tough Gold Fleet. Many valuable lessons learned by these guys which will pay dividends in the coming years.
