Hayling Bay stepped it up - literally - on day two. Strong South Westerly breeze created some serious speed humps for the sailors to navigate, with the top crews catching some fast rides downwind; today was the day to see a Flying Fifteen on the plane! The harsh conditions also took some casualties with a couple of broken rigs and a collision - damage limitations for some unfortunately. A fantastic day for Jeremy Davey and Martin Huett with 2nd's in both races, Richard Lovering and Matt Alvarado on top and Ian Cadwallader and Dave Sweet still in contention with third overall.
