Light and variable winds made for very tight racing

Sailors knew going out that the lake was going to be tricky due to the light winds and its easterly direction. The race committee was able to manage the shifty winds quite well, getting high praise from the sailors.

Three more races were scheduled for Day 2 but the light wind forecast was correct and no racing took place.
