The weather conditions turned out to be ideal enabling the fleet to run 3 races on Sunday.
In the first race, Ladybug, (CJ Carter and Kinnet Ehring with coach Ned Crockett) captured first place. Second place was awarded to Ty Affair due to a questionable maneuver at the starting line. Venturi (Sabina German and Stephanie Chaufournier with coach Mike Kennedy) on a port tack failed to give way to Ty Affair (Sophie German and coach Danielle Kuper) which was on a starboard tack. The reasoning provided by coach Kennedy was that the starboard boat failed to hold a straight course thus allowing the port boat to hold its course. The Race Committee ruled differently stating that the starboard boat always has the right of way.
Venturi won the second race followed by Ladybug and Ty Affair. Ladybug came back to win the 3rd race followed by Venturi. Ty Affair retired before the start so it took 3rd place.
