A total of twenty three races were conducted over two days. The racing was spectacular, with tight mark roundings, and by the second day, picture perfect fleet starts. Conditions were excellent the first day with light winds strengthening as the day progressed. The second day had light winds with consistent gusts and persistent rain. Seventeen individuals entered this regatta, seven brought their own boats.
