Update Day 3: Both Irish crews through to Gold fleet at Olympic qualifier in Lanzarote. Two race wins today for Robert Dickson and Sean Waddilove have moved the pair into third overall. They were heading for a top three result in their second race of the day but were disqualified for being fractionally over the line at the start. However, it was the opening race of the day that offered the biggest thrill for the Irish team as Dickson and Waddilove were chased around the course by team-mates Ryan Seaton and Séafra Guilfoyle who scored two second places plus a tenth and moved from 17th to 10th overall. Both teams will now compete in the Gold Fleet. Ireland face Belgium and Italy in the contest for the final nation slot for the Olympics. “Both Irish crews showed their capabilities on the water and in the results today with well deserved places in the Gold fleet ,” commented James O’Callaghan, Irish Sailing’s Performance Director. “Two top three results for Ryan and Seafrá have got them into the top ten where they can build further towards Friday’s finale - this event will come down to the wire!”

After some improvements, "Yellow" had to be tested on Tankumsee test track. It performed well, though water was a bit bumpy an "Yellow" has been in the air for some time. Power is extreme, so I had to be very careful with the trigger. Battery was 4 cells lipo, It can run with 5 too, but 4 is far enough. Whole System remained cool without water cooling. New water drain vent performed well, too. Acceleration is extreme, reaching high speed in 1 or 2 seconds, it's almost jumping out from water - very cool
