Unbelievable what Billy & Marie are doing, also needless to praise ‘grandpa’ Lange & Ceci Carranza plus Jason & Lisa who keep leading. All being said in previous posts, specially and specifically on Day 2
Still much to go:  3 more races and the Medal Race pending.

But what a great day! Do you want to know what it means to be an Argie? Just watch Del Potro semi match against Nadal… and then watch Basket vs Brasil today, all happening at the same time along Nacra 17 races. Argentina = Suffering , in any imaginable aspect you can think off, being sport, life, country. I have a strong heart though!
We are a disaster as mentioned many times, but from time to time we give ourselves a break, I still remember 2004 Olympics: Gold in Basket, Football and Bronze in Tornado.

Do you want to know what happened (& why) today Saturday in the Nacra 17 Class? Just read my analysis and report from Friday (Day 2) and copy-paste in space below: catsailingnews.com/2016/08/rio-2016-olympics-nacra-17-day-2.html

49er – Yesterday I watched the 49er races ,  in awe seeing the Danish crew missing the last mark before the finish leading Burling & Tuke. But the second the Kiwis showed they have an extra gear.
Two bullets for them on both races completed. 49er Results Here
