It’s often said that a change is as good as a rest and Giles Scott will certainly be hoping that is the case this week at the Finn European Championships in Vilamoura, Portugal.
The reigning Olympic champion has had his attention focused on the America’s Cup recently, where he finished third with Sir Ben Ainslie’s INEOS Team UK outfit in New Zealand.
But, on his return to Finn action for the first time in six months, Scott is now fully focused on tuning up for the Tokyo 2020 Games – starting with the event in Portugal which will see a fleet of around 50 sailors from 28 nations take part in ten races over five days.
