Fourth day of racing at the Hempel World Cup Series Miami on Biscayne Bay and the start of the Doublehanded Offshore Event.
In addition to the Olympic class dinghy racing, this year the Miami event is partnering with the SORC Fort Lauderdale to Key West Race to run a ‘simulation’ for the proposed 2024 Olympic event, a Doublehanded Offshore race.
The Doublehanded offshore teams started Thursday, south of Port Everglades, and the boats will race to Key West, with an expected course length of approximately 160 miles. The finish is off of Mallory Square in Key West.
Weather conditions meant a late start for the dinghy classes.
The Men’s and Women’s 470 fleets attempted to sail but the fickle and shifting wind made things tricky so no racing was possible. Also no for the Radials.
