Lighter winds seem to be expected for the second day of the Cascais Cup and the 52 SUPER SERIES race fleet have left the dock in glorious sunshine and a gentle NW breeze.
Spookie lead the regatta standings after their 2,1 yesterday with Quantum Racing not too far behind courtesy of their 3,3 on the opening day.
It is notably cooler than high summer today, with limited chance of thermal enhancement, any significant sea breeze help.
On the overall standings for the season Sled still hold third place overall but are just one point up on Bronenosec while Platoon are still on the ascendancy at 213 points, nine points behind Bronenosec and 10 points behind Sled.
We are focused on sailing well and doing well on the water rather than thinking about third place overall.
