Eighteen teams participated in the third round of the Swedish J/70 Sailing League in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden. In the end, the overall leader of the Swedish J/70 Sailing League (the Allsvenskan Segling 2018), the KSSS (Royal Swedish YC), added yet another bullet to their season scoreline to count just 4 points after three events (Malmo, Ekero, Örnsköldsvik). Winning for the KSSS did not come easily in this event, as the inner harbor of Örnsköldsvik had very shifty, puffy winds at 10-20+ knots. Saturday’s wind conditions moderated into the 10-15 knots range, and produced a tie-breaker between KSSS and the Särö Båtklubb at 14 points each. On Sunday, everyone was hopeful for a final showdown between the KSSS and the Särö Båtklubb teams, but it was not meant to be, as the winds were 20-25 knots, gusting to 30. So, the third day of racing was canceled and, thus, the KSSS won the round after only seven races during Friday and Saturday. The four who won the victory for KSSS were Mikael Lindqvist, Christian Harding, Linnea Floser and Hanna Mauer. With three out of four rounds completed for this year’s Allsvenskan, the ruling champions from KSSS have a safe lead after a second place and two wins in the three rounds. The rest of the teams are now chasing Särö Boat Club that is sitting in second place with a 3-7-2 record for 12 points, 8 points back from the leaders KSSS. Hot on their heels in third place overall is GKSS with a 9-2-4 tally for 15 points. And, only 2 points in arrears of them in fourth place is Hjuviks BK with a 5-9-3 scoreline for 17 points.
