During the first race on July 9, Cayard/Trinter lost their mast at the second windward mark in a very windy race. In the days leading up to racing the wind has been Meltemi everyday, fairly strong, up to 28 knots with holes of 10 knots, very puffy and shifty.

The second race on July 10 was on a wind-transition day with a dying Meltemi going to a seabreeze. These days are tough days for racing as the two winds are fighting each other. Racing was delayed until 13:30 and then the Tornado's started first on the course in a 7 knot seabreeze. The Stars and the Ynglings were to start after the Tornados finished two races. The Stars started at 1630 in 6 knots from 195. As the leaders got to the first mark the Race Committee abandoned the race. The wind direction was the same as the start but it was dying.

The 3rd and 4th races on July 11 were sailed in a seabreeze from 160-195 degrees of 8-12 knots. Racing started at 1600 for the 1st race and 1730 for the 2nd.

The 5th and 6th races were on July 12.
