Chris Eames and Rachel Tilley extend their lead at the Noble Marine Rooster RS400 National Championships.
A single race, won by Roo Purves and Callum Gibb, was all that was managed on Thursday for the 35 competitors at the East Lothian Yacht Club.
Eames and Tilley finished second and now have 11 points going into the final day.
Sam Knight and Chris Bownes remain in second place with 22 points as Jamie Calder and Keith Bedborough move into third with 23 points.
Steve and Sarah Cockerill were seventh, slipping back to fourth overall on 25 points.
As the wind departed, AP over A was signalled and the fleet returned to the shore, the day done.
Final day Friday and if at least one more race is completed the second discard will kick-in!
