Sorry but we are having internet connection problems and so may not be able to publish the Fantasy Sailing results until tomorrow. At least we should be able to include any changes due to protests, if there are any!

I will update the protest decisions some time today when I get to my computer. For those not in the know unfortunately if you have the British Sonar on your team life ain't looking that good. Hopefully things will improve.

Results are in. As the Aussies make it to the top of all 3 classes, we have a Brit back on top. Flatulence (Ric Cassell) has taken the golden position (even without an Aussie in his team). Six nations (Andrew Street) are back into the top 3 in Silver and Kick Ass Sailing (Trond Sverre Foerde) has dropped into the Bronze. , yeaboi, Boxing Skippy, Dragons in Rio, Boombox, Pretty Boys Sailing Club, Backing the Brits round out the Top 10. It is close behind with team Frazzled, Wet Dream Team, KGB Sports Department, Rope4boats.co.uk all just 1 point outside the top 10. It's going to get exciting. Stay tuned for tomorrow.

Updated results for the protest decisions. Now I know why sailing is not a spectator sport. It definitely makes more work for me. They didn't change anything for the top 17 teams. Anybody with the Italian Skud life is not great. It's not over yet.

Yes! We have a discard! lots of disqualifications in the Skud for being early to the start line (naughty) Those with British boats starting to do better (finally). It is the Norwegians with Kick Ass Sailing Team (Trond Sverre Foerde) that have taken the lead. Flatulence (Ric Cassell) is on equal points with gold but on count back are in silver. Six Nations (Andrew Street) have fallen to Bronze. Boombox, , Dragons in Rio, Boxing Skippy, Pretty Boys sailing Club, team frazzled, yea boi round out the top 10. It's all change at the top!
