Today we sailed 11 flights, totalling 44 races when the race committee decided to call the day.
As expected from such high level skippers the matches have been interesting and well fought; we had some minor damage on a boat - but nothing that cannot be solved in a few hours of work.

In the evening competitors, organizer and race officers gathered at the club tent to enjoy a "pasta party", prepared thanks to a tireless group of club members.
Note from SailRaceWin: At the end of the first day, Reuben Corbett's (NZL) Aon Racing is unbeaten on 7 wins, and Will Tiller's (NZL) FMJ Racing has 7 wins and 1 loss.
