No sea change for Irish sailors

Ireland’s sailors made little or no impact around the Saronic Gulf today, as Howth duo Tom Fitzpatrick and Fraser Brown remained 16th overall in the 49er fleet and Sydney veterans Mark Mansfield and Killian Collins tailed off again in the Star, finishing 15th to stay in last place.

Fitzpatrick and Brown had a busy day, competing in three races. A poor start in race 13 saw them capsize and fail to finish.
