Craig holds on to lead

Nick Craig, of Frensham Pond SC, maintains a close lead over Jeff Dyer, of Penarth YC, after Race 5 of the 2004 Enterprise World Championships in Cork yesterday.

Race 5 again proved a good start was essential to have any hope of staying in the top 10, largely due to a significant pin end bias and a light breeze from the north east.

Irish sailor Sean Craig set the pace and maintained the lead until the last leg when Phil Kirk from Frampton-on-Severn SC and Nick Craig both took advantage of large wind-shifts. Kirk won the race and moved to 19th overall.
