Defending champions Trine PALLUDAN, Ida HARTVIG and Christina OTZEN (DEN) began the day in first place overall, but a disappointing day with finishes of 23 and 13 sees them fall back to sixth on the leaderboard. They are tied on 45 points with 2004 Olympic silver medallists, Ruslana TARAN, Anna KALININA and Svetlana MATEVUSHEVA (UKR), whilst number two team in the ISAF World Sailing Rankings, Ekaterina SKOUDINA, Diana KRUTSKIKH and Tatian LARSTEVA (RUS) are a point further back. The leading team in the Rankings of Kristin WAGNER, Anna HOLL and Christina HOLL (GER) are still having a tough time on Lake Mondsee lying 22 overall.
Maarten JAMIN, Gert Henk BAKKER and Jansje HOFSTRA (NED) have taken the overall lead in the open fleet after finishing second in race three of the Championship. Due to two failed starts and the changing wind conditions, only one race was sailed yesterday. Local heroes Christoph, Georg and Susanne SKOLAUT (AUT) came in third in race three and move up to second overall, eight points behind JAMIN. Overnight leaders Rudi MAYR, Wolfgang DAURER and Sarah ZADRAZIL (AUT) drop to third finishing 14th. The bullet went to Torn OTTE, Maryke VON OGK and Ester OTTE (NED), a result which sees them rise to fourth overall.
