A further two races were completed on Tuesday, with the first discard kicking in.

Race 5 was delayed to allow the wind to fill in. Andrew Smith & Rory Burdock (Royal Lymington/Frensham Pond) in 9243 Blue String Pudding led the combined Gold and Silver Fleets at the end of the triangle from Jamie Proffitt & Leyla Manthorpe Rizatepe (Fishers Green) in 8846 No Fear and Ben Binmore & Martha Jones (Royal Torbay) in 8440 Black Otter. Sam & Joe Barr (Corinthian Otters) in 9027 Whatever were fourth, Jack Wilson & Jim Brooker (Frensham Pond) in 735 Pintail, fifth and Henry Mills & Robert Keen (Waldringfield) in 8845 Hot Rocks, sixth. These six boats broke away from the rest of the fleet and as the wind dropped, the Race Officer shortened the course, finishing Gold & Silver at the second leeward mark. Andrew & Rory recorded their second bullet of the event. Ben & Martha took second, with Henry & Robert third.

Race 6 was away at the second attempt. Ben & Martha rounded the windward first from Abigail Croft & Alex Page (Frensham Pond) in 8363 On The Edge, with George & Ben Warrington (Thorpe Bay) in 9029 Freestyle, third, Jamie & Leyla, fourth, Nick Sutton & Thomas Jayasekera (Corinthian Otters) in 8844, fifth and David Galazin & Lizzie Wall (South Cerney) in 8348 Liquorice, sixth. Ben & Martha and Abigail & Alex opened up a significant gap over the rest of the Gold and Silver fleets with Ben & Martha scoring their second victory of the event. Nick & Thomas were third.

After six races, Andrew & Rory lead with 14 points. Ben and Martha are 7 points behind with Henry & Robert trailing by a further point on 22.

In the Bronze Fleet, overnight leaders Sam Yale & Lottie Passmore (Waldringfield) sailing 9369 scored 1,2 and after six races hold first place with 6 points. Sam Cooper & Alex Laidlaw (Frensham Pond) in 9151 scored 2,1 yesterday and now fill second place with 15 points. Alex Philpott & Megan Ferguson (Frensham Pond) in 9390 were third in both races and lie third overall with 19 points.
