FW Worlds Day 3 and 4

During the Day 3 the qualification was completed. Unfortunately Karolis LTU 1001, Giedrius LTU 11, Arnas LTU 79, Audrius LTU 717 and Robertas LTU 127 did not qualified to the golden fleet.
On Day 4 we had 2 races for Gold and 2 for the silver fleet. The TOP of the fleet is very close together after today. Casper Bouman is leading with 9 point after he finished 2nd and 6th on the race. Gonzalo Costa Hoevel is close behind with 11 points. Steve Allen from Australia is in the third place even though he got 1st on the second race today. Arnon Dagan is 4th after taking a bullet in the first race.
I had an average day and moved 1 place up to 26th place. On the first race I had a bad start and got covered for a while which resulted in 31st place at the finish. In the second race I got a nice start near the boat on starboard tack and was going in Top 15. It was nice to see that Arnon Dagan overtook me only in the second lap. However, I've managed to loose 10 place on the last downwind after a bad gybe, two bad decisions and most of all two horific gusts.
Gedas LTU 76 finished in front of me both times. Arvydas LTU 789, Paulius LTU 718 and Mindaugas LTU 64 are fighting in the second half of the fleet.
