A few boats had a good go at the front of the fleet on day three of the RC44 Marstrand World Championship, but none could match the consistency of Team Nika.

When the rain fell, it made little difference to his fortunes, following up with a second and fourth place. The Russian team has impressively taken a race win every day of the World Championship so far, putting them 15 points ahead.
