The early start scheduled for 8.00 am failed to deliver conditions similar to the previous days – and it turned into a long day for competitors and race committee. However mid afternoon , and despite overcast skies, the wind kicked in and 2 races were run in 12>14 knots before the storm wiped out the chance of further racing.
Another win in race 3 ensured Casper Bouman (NED52) kept top spot on the podium and was crowned Riccione Grand Prix Champion.
Steve Allens (AUS0) consistancy ensured he kept silver medal position and was first Master, and the final podium position went to Martin Ervin (EST202) who rounded off a great regatta by winning race 4.
Other division winners were :
Youth – Kieran Badloe (NED 194)
Grand Master – Allessandro Giovini (ITA196)
Light – Miguel Martinho (POR5)
