Day Two of the 2016 IOCA UK Winters saw the breeze fill in, due to the Storm Angus passing through in the early morning. Racing was postponed for a short period but sailors soon took to the water as the wind started to ease. Race 1 saw William Pank get his third win of the series with Maria Athina Vogiatzi taking the lead in the other flight. Race 2 & 3 saw lighter conditions, especially at the top of the racecourse. VRsport.tv Media Crew's new Lead Presenter Saskia Clark, started sailing in an Opti before becoming a international super star in sailing years later, joined us on the water and chatted with the sailors between races. William Pank went on to win the event on 7 points with India Page-Wood taking first lady & third overall.
