49er Worlds - Morrison and Rhodes lead after tough day



3:26 AM Wed 6 Jan 2010 GMT
'2010 49er Worlds, Day 2, Grand Cayman Island' Fried Elliott

Stevie Morrison and Ben Rhodes from Great Britain lead after day two of the 2010 49er World Championship.

Yesterday's leaders Australians Nathan Outteridge and Iain Jensen had a tough day. The reigning World Champions went into the second day with a slender two point lead over Stevie Morrison and Ben Rhodes from Great Britain and had an up and down day in the windy conditions.

Morrison and Rhodes (Great Britain) have a four point lead over the Spanish duo Iker Martinez and Xabier Fernandez, who are in second place after bullets in races 4 and 5.

Pietro Sibello and Gianfranco Sibello (Italy) are third, but only one point back. Outteridge and Jensen finished the day with a 9th and 11th place, leaving them fourth overall.

'Today was a tougher day for us, there was a lot more wind and we had a few capsizes,' said Outteridge. 'It was averaging about 20 knots and gusting up to 25 which was the most wind we've had since we got here.'

'It was real snakes and ladders out there, there where capsizes the whole way through the fleet,' he said. 'The Italians won the first race and finished 10th in the second after a swim, we spent a lot of the day just trying to keep it upright.'

Only two races were possible on day two due to the low tide leaving just a metre of water at the start line.

The low tide was catastrophic for Irish crew Ryan Seaton and Matthew McGovern who's boat was written off after colliding with a rock.
