Light breezes and an approaching front kept everyone waiting in the morning. After a lunch break, the A Fleet headed back out. After another hour long delay, a light 3-5 knot breeze filled in from the southwest and two races were completed. After a quick rotation, B Fleet was treated to a 8-10 knot shore breeze from the northeast. B Fleet sailed three races, which brought sailing to a close as we reached the time limit.
One protest was heard resulting in a DSQ for Hampton (Rule 42)
Sunday once again presented some challenging conditions, with light winds and a strong current flowing in the James River. After another hour long delay, a south western breeze began to fill in. After several attempt to start, the breeze finally settled and A Fleet completed two more races. B Fleet then sailed one race to get the rations back in sync. With a steady but light breeze, two more races were sailed in each division before the time limit was reached.
