Forecast to be a blue day, but a task was set which took advantage of the best-looking area of thermals up the middle of the island to near Thames and back.
A few clouds started to appear around the middle of the day so a launch was made and everyone made a start.
The Open Class coped better with the conditions and had a great day with good distances covered and some really close racing, despite eveyone being a bit over time. The first four gliders home were all within 12 points, the first three arriving within three minutes of each other! Great stuff.
The first three of the Racing Class were also close, setting up an intruiging battle for overall placings tomorrow.
A catered dinner was enjoyed in celebration of a good week, with most competitors electing to go home tomorrow. The door was left open however with tomorrrow still being an official Contest Day.
