The weather was excellent for the sunbathers but the very light SW wind was not so good for the sailors.
With 19 boats the start line was very crowded but all three race started cleanly with no boats over the line and no protests.
After the morning race the wind rather died. There was only a slight current but it gave the fast boats like the Merlin a big advantage and it completed two laps in 37 minutes while the slowest boat took 60 minutes for one lap.
Hampton won by taking 1st and 2nd place in each race.
