Team New Zealand helmsman Peter Burling has had to settle for second at the Moth class world sailing championships on Lake Garda in Italy.
Burling had his worst performance of the regatta on the final day with a fifth, 23rd and a 17th.
While he was able to discard the final two results he finished 20 points behind the winner, defending champion Paul Goodison and just a point ahead of Aussie Iain Jenson in third.
