The fog lifted to reveal a beautiful Saturday morning with blue skies and variable force 3 breeze. The first of the races gave an indication of how close the competion was going to be as the fleet passed the leward mark for the 2nd time less than a boat length separated the first 3 bosses but Chris Gandy managed to break free on the following beat and held the lead until the finish. Race 2 was again very close with Chris Gandy, Julian Cramp, Patrick Carter and Steve & Nick Murray all taking it turns to lead, however it was, again, Chris Gandy who eventually broke the deadlock to take first place. The 3rd race again saw frequent position changes until a shift in the wind put the Murray's into the lead. They held this position until the final downwind leg when both Julian Cramp and Chris Gandy got through resulting in a 3 way tacking dual up the final beat and a win for Julian Cramp by the narrowest of margins.

The wind held for Sunday and race 4 got underway but Julian Cramp was busy doing his make up and missed the start by more than a minute. A luffing dual on the first downwind leg put the Murray's into first place, which they managed to hold, until the finish, despite a late charge by Gandy. In race 5 Gandy lead from the start but the fight for second place continued until the finish where Julian Cramp crossed less than 1 second ahead of the Murray's. Julian Cramp was the only one to take advantage of the line bias and took an early lead after an impresive port start. Terry Hand and Roy Hart took an early retirement, out with gear failure. Julian lead until a careless capsize handed the lead to Gandy but he was unable to hold on and Julian just pipped him at the line.
