French crew dominated at Auckland. Tim Mourniac and Charles Dorange were crowned 2016 Nacra 15 Youth World Champs after 12 races, 3 held today (Monday in NZ) .
Tim is son of long time F18 sailor Jean Christophe Mourniac, and he has been sailing and racing F18, Flying Phantom and Diam 24 OD himself. Winning over Henri Demesmaeker is great indication on his level along Charles, and so easy to envision Tim has a great future ahead.
Foiling experience on the FP and the competitive racing in the F18 along this new Nacra 15 Class will fill all the blanks towards a possible qualification for Tokyo 2020 and beyond.

The French Catracing scene has Billy Besson back to the game plus Franck Cammas & Team Groupama France preparing for the Americas Cup in Bermuda next year.

At Auckland  Youth Worlds in Nacra 15, second was place for Italians Gianluigo Ugolini & Maria Maria Giubilei , and third overall for Roman Screve & Ian Brill representing the US.
