Saturday’s racing had competitors on edge before the start with a stiff North Easterly kicking up large waves and bringing a stern wind chill. 

Race officers Dewi and Robin set a tight triangular course that saw some intense planing and big wave surfing. 

The gybe mark was successful rounded by all boats with no spills - a testament to the experience in the fleet. 

At the end of race one two boats limped home with breakages leaving a reduced fleet to battle it out in an adrenaline fuelled race two.
