Momentum is a precious commodity on a yacht but is just as important in any regatta or sporting series. The Bermuda team needed to stay on a roll to continue their SSL Gold Cup adventures.
Just as in the football World Cup, winning builds confidence and can lead to more success, and the day for Bermuda had the potential to make or break their fortunes.
Unfortunately for Bermuda, they finished the final race of the 1/16 in 4th place leaving them with 7 points overall.
Team Hungary won the golden double point race and qualified for the next round of the Gran Canaria SSL Gold Cup.
Despite Tahiti's loss today, Tahiti is the second team to qualify for the 1/8 Finals.
