Day 3 of Hamilton Island Race Week

Day 3 saw all fleets with champagne sailing conditions, 12-18 knots of SE and a perfect day in sailing paradise.

Things are staying pretty tight at the top of the 52 fleet with Doyle-powered Matador holding onto the top spot and Zen in third.

Duncan Hine skippered the Reichel/Pugh 66 Alive to a win today to continue their campaign to claim back to back titles for the IRC Gold division.

All fleets now have enjoyed a lay day in Hamilton Island with a variety of events, boat work to be done and rest to be had ready to be back in action tomorrow.
