With so much excitement for the start of the 2018 Melges 20 World League, there was unfortunately no breeze at Forio d'Ischia on the opening day, prompting AP over Alpha - racing cancelled for the day. Thirty Melges 20 teams will try again tomorrow to kick off the 2018 season.
Despite the lack of breeze, the Mozzarella Party goes on, hosted in the Melges World League Regatta Village. Fresh mozzarella was provided by Costanzo, beer by Nastro Azzurro, and wine compliments of Cenatiempo.
The first warning for Saturday is 11.00.
