After a storm early this morning, the competitors had to wait for two more hours before the wind stabilized and they could start the races.
But as the first races started the east wind continued to increase, generating 30-knot gusts by the race finish ,and further racing was abandoned.
Many boats capsized, but the race committee together with the coaches, were able to maintain the boat safety teams.
