The second day of the BVI Spring Regatta & Sailing Festival saw 43 boats race the 11NM course from Nanny Cay to Marina Cay for the Scrub Island Invitational. It was a wild and windy day, with gusts hitting 30+ knots in a particularly dark squall that hit the racecourse, washing off the salty water that had already drenched those sailors on the rail as big seas washed over the sides. Cruising Multihull, Bareboat, Cruising, and Performance Cruising sailed directly from Nanny Cay, finishing at Marina Cay, while Racing and Performance Multihulls sailed out around Ginger Island for a longer, wetter course, also finishing at Marina Cay.
