The intent was to run two races with short legs and plenty of mark roundings to emphasize close tactical sailing. The wind while setting up the course was 3 – 4 kts from the Southeast. Temporary mark W was set towards Indian Island and the S/F line set about 1/3 nm to the NW of it. Course SWFWF was posted. By start time the wind had risen to 4 -6 kts. and by the first return to F there were gusts to 9 kts. Then the wind began to veer and soften, and after the finish, moved to the NW and died. The planned second race was forestalled by the fleet returning to harbor.
