Sjoerd Hoekstra took the bullets at race 1 and 2 and in race 3 a 6th with Chris on his Vision 3 times second place , Jaap Straakenbroek did take the bullet in the 3th race, this makes the top of the board after day 1 .
Chris 1st with 6 point , Sjoerd 2nd with 8 points and Jaap Straakenbroek with 8 points 3th.
DAY 2

The Saturday was completely different with strong winds reaching the 20knots easy and gusts above 25 knots.
