    Minimal action on the North Sea for New Zealand crews during the fourth day of the sailing world championships

    Minimal action on the North Sea for New Zealand crews during the fourth day of the sailing world championships


    A mix of flat water, gentle breeze and shifting currents halted progress off the coast of The Netherlands.

    However, Nacra 17 pair Micah Wilkinson and Erica Dawson have jumped from 10th to eighth in gold-fleet racing and into an Olympic qualification spot with four races remaining.

    Dawson sums up their outing.



    They need to finish ninth or better to qualify the boat for Paris.
