Nine boats registered in the foiling fleet and fourteen in the classic fleet with three races run in 6-15 mph with a light tide and light chop. Cam Farrah, Axel Issel, and Jeff Brauch took an early lead in the first three positions in the foiling fleet with Bob Hodges, Oscar Rodgers, and Patrick Stadt taking the first three positions in the classic fleet. Day 2 conditions are forecasted to be light and variable with Day 3 of racing promising another day of consistent breeze for terrific racing.
