Overall results to date

Race 1 - Completed 17 November

Due to strong winds +30 knots and high seas during Saturday 18 November, race 2 has been rescheduled for Sunday 19 November.
Due to the same conditions on Sunday race 2 has been rescheduled to Monday

Because of the "unusual for this time of year"  weather conditions prevailing - the same as the previous two days - race 2 has been reschduled for Tuesday.

Also two races per day may be sailed for the remaining days of the regatta.

The "unusual"  weather conditions have persisted for yet another day of the regatta, resulting in the further postponment of race 2 until Wednesday 22nd.
Wind speeds were 28 gusting 35 knots with wave heights of 3 to 4 metres, with very little prospect of improvement in conditions, when the bridge boat decided to call racing off for the day.

At last race 2 was started on the morning of Wednesday 22 in 12 knot winds and moderate seas
