It was a long day in Palma with the late coming sea breeze delaying racing. Patience paid off and the second day in the Trofeo Sofia IBEROSTAR provided great racing and allowed to complete the qualification stage.

A packed three-race day for the 470 Men, with consistency continuing to flow out of France's talented young partnership of Guillaume Pirouelle/Valentin Sipan who knocked out a 2,12,5 scorecard, to hold the tie break advantage over Sweden's Anton Dahlberg/Fredrik Bergstrom. Third are New Zealand's Paul Snow-Hansen/Daniel Willcox, 1 point behind the leaders on 9 points.

A late start for the 470 Women, saw them head out to race at 1700 hours. New Zealand conserves their lead in the women 470 where the top two teams remain unchanged. Jo Aleh/Polly Powrie sailed into consistent second places today, to conserve a small lead over French Camille Lecointr/Helene Defrance, with Japan's Ai Kondo Yoshida/Miho Yoshioka in third.

The 470 Men and Women fleets now advance to the final series racing from Wednesday, with the Medal Races on Saturday 4 April 2015. 470 Women are scheduled to start at 1100 hours, with the 470 Men at 1300 hours.
