Plenty of heat on and off the water on Day 2 of Sail Melbourne 2022, as kiteboards and wing foils took to Port Phillip for their first day of racing.
Inclusion of Kiteboarding in the Olympic class at Paris 2024 is reflected at Sail Melbourne, plus the mixed crew 470 event and the new foiling boards.
Zac Pullen couldn’t have been more impressive in winning all five of the day’s races, with Jane Taylor taking second place and Oscar Timm third.
Matt Wearn continued his form with two more wins in the two ILCA 7 Laser races.
Evie Saunders now leads the ICA6 Radial event, two points ahead of Zoe Thomson.
New leaders in the mixed 470 are Chris Charlwood and Amelia Catt
