Well today was mostly a waiting game for us.

There was a little bit of breeze this morning so the repechage group got out in good time and by 1pm we had finished our final two matches of the gold fleet, finishing with one win and one loss to win the group and go through to the quarter finals ranked 1st.

Next up on the race course was the Silver group and that was when the wind started to shift and die.

The plan was for us to go back out on the water at 3.30pm to race two of our quarter final matches however after we had waited around for 5 hours the race committee final postponed for the day at 6pm.

Apart from the poor forecast, tomorrow is now shaping up to potentially be a big big day with both quarter and semi finals.

In our quarters we are against Tulloch (USA) which we are quite pleased about as it has been quite a while since we raced her in the Elliotts so it will be interesting to see how we match up.

In the other quarters, Skudina vs Leroy, Le Berre vs Barkow and Echegoyen vs Groeneveld.
