No official races were held today. With the wind minimums not quite being met on the course for over 3 hours, it was decided to run a fun race which consisted of 2 laps around a top and bottom mark. The wind slowly built from 6 knots on the start line to around 14 knots by the second lap. Micah Buzianis, again led the field, with Seth Besse 2nd, and local sailor Gareth Wood showing good form in 3rd. What was supposed to be a 15 knot southerly turned out to be a light north westerly. May be the forecasters will get it right tomorrow, with moderate southerlies forecasted.
