Day 1 Wrap Up

High gusts, squalls and potential thunderstorms kept the Jr Gold Cup sailors off the water until 11 am after which it became a perfect sailing day in the Great Sound. Sailed in 16-18 knots from the SSW it proved to be a great day of racing. Off to an early lead is Ingnacio "Nacho" Rogala firing off a 1,2,,1 followed by Bermudians Owen Siese and Kalin Hillier. Dominican Paloma Esteban is in 4th place and is the leading female in the group of 35 sailors.
