The three finished together in the final race, with BARKOW, HOWE and CAPOZZI edging out FERRIS, SMEAL and HOLTUM to finish one place above them in eleventh, with the Russians following in 13th. BARKOW then adds the Yngling World title to the ISAF Women's Match Racing World Championship title she won in Annapolis last year. The New Zealanders secure second place, whilst ILIENKO takes the bronze medal in only her fourth ISAF Graded event in the Yngling, after her move from the 470.
Nicola BETHWAITE, Karyn GOJNICH and Helen IMPEY (AUS) finished fourth overall with Anna BASALKINA, Galina LOUKACHOVA and Vladislava UKRAINTSEVA (RUS) making it two Russian teams in the top five.
