JAMES CHAPPLE was in fifth place after the first day of the Royal Yachting Association National Youth Sailing Championships.
More than 260 of the country’s best under-19 dinghy sailors are battling it out this week at the Pwllhel Sailing Club in north Wales.
The 18-year-old Sarnian is hoping to secure his place in the British Youth Squad by finishing in the top 12 out of the 25 entered in the Laser Standard dinghy class. If he is successful, it will be Chapple’s fourth year in the British squad and his second in the Laser Standard.
