The first impressions of the second competition day was more or less a glassy look-alike Aegean see staring right back at us, with the wind from the opposite direction there was no excitement to be found at all.

It meant less to no chance for any suitable sailing conditions this day. The skippers meeting took place at 11:00 and the AP flag was raised immediately after. The athletes were on standby mode until the late afternoon, some took the advantage to relax, or to do some island exploration, body work out and even scuba diving trips while they would receive wind updates or any event related info directly on mobile.

Unfortunately the forecast for the next day is not on the bright side. But there is still hope for Sunday and Monday. All fingers crossed.
