Based on the speeds posted, if they were ALL in one class, there would be 18+/- boats, that would be great racing!

REMEMBER , that there were 4 separate races held on Sunday at 10, 12:30 . 1:30 and 2:30 the winds shifted almost 180 degrees during that time frame and the tides changed big, since it was a full moon. So the point is the conditions were a bit different for each race, but all in all it was ROUGH for all three races.
