Jesse and Zander Kirkland fell one spot from 54th to 55th in the Seiko 49er World Championship Regatta going on in the waters of Grand Bahamas Sailing Club after 8 races.
The brothers who must be feeling lucky that the local media have treated them much better than they treated their fellow younger sailors over the Christmas break during the Orange Bowl Regatta, picked up where they left off yesterday with a Did Not Finish in the day’s first race which was the 6th in the series, before finishing 25th in race seven and then they finished 27th in race 8.
