Fireball Europeans at Acquafresca, Brenzone, Lake Garda - Day 3

A planned 12 o'clock start turned into 2 o'clock after waiting for the Ora to settle down. Three races were held and racing is now up-to-date.

The light breeze while looking idyllic was hard to read with streaks of pressure and shifts working their way down the lake. Boats could be just yards apart in different wind strengths.

The standard port bias line caused the usual havoc at the port end with many boats getting in all sorts of trouble. It looks like Claude and Ruedi from Switzerland are going to wrap the championship up with an impressive consistency in results that no other team seems to be able to achieve.

Racing continues Thursday with 2 more heats.
