Strong winds from the S East / S West and heavy rain greeted the competitors on Day 2, the final day of the above Championship. With the unwelcomed change in conditions the competitors were asked if they were willing to continue to race and 2 decided to retire, as they did not have sails small enough for the conditions.
Racing continued and the last 6 heats were completed by the remaining competitors.
