Day 3 of the International Moth UK Nationals at Stokes Bay saw a new leader emerged after a shuffling of the leading pack.
Dave Hivey, with 20 points, takes a two point lead ahead of overnight leader Dan Ward, who is now second, tied on 22 points with Eddie Bridle.
Jim McMillan slips to fourth with 25 points, Paul Gliddon is fifth with 26 points and then a six point gap to James Gray in sixth on 32 points and Alex Adams with 34 points.
Perhaps the biggest improver was Mike Lennon, up ten places after discarding his two 46 point scores from Friday.
Race winners were: R6 Jason Belben, R7 Dave Hivey, R8 Eddie Bridle and R9 Jim McMillan.
The breeze this morning is around 15 knots with some stronger gusts.
