A couple of races of RR2 sailed before the wind picked up. Try for split fleets tomorrow.

Lake Hood had variable winds for the first day of the Lower South Islands. About 20 races completed so far. The plan tomorrow will be to finish this RR, then sail split fleets. Mt Aspiring, Otago Girls, St Andrews, Timaru Boys, Christ’s, Christchurch Boys, Christchurch Combo Girls and Nelson Combined have all made the trip to trial this venue.
