On Saturday all the participating classes held two sleeves, the bay of San Lorenzo being the stage of the tests. A strong north-east wind that at some times of the tour would be the 20 knots of intensity, sea of wind that would cause continuous rotions in the fleet and sunny day were the ingredients of an excellent day to navigate. The regatists arrived tired to port after a hard day. On Sunday the weather conditions were very similar, with the north-east wind set at 15 knots, and with a little less sea.
