Percy replaces Jablonski

+39 helm gets in more match race practise

Polish former Match Race World Champion Karol Jablonski will not be defending his title at the Marseille International Match Race on 16-20 March. Instead he is to be replaced by Britain's own Iain Percy.

Following Jablonski announced he would be unable to participate in this Grade One match race event, Percy has slotted in representing the Italian +39 Challenge. The Marseille International Match Race is held in J/80s and raced with four crew.
