Day #2 Morning Report – How to Follow World Cup Series Miami
Scattered clouds remain over Coconut Grove, Miami, USA but wind speeds are picking up. The first of the classes are making their way out to their racing areas and will hope for more sailing on day two of the 2018 World Cup Series.
It was a similar start on the first day of competition with cloudy skies but the sunshine eventually pierced through. The breeze remained fickle, 4-6 knots, and made for a frustrating start to the Series. Particularly for the Finn class, RS:X Men and Women’s Laser Radial who didn’t manage to race.
The 543 sailors, representing 50 nations, will experience a much improved breeze on day two with predicted highs of 15 knots. The fleets will be hoping to complete all their scheduled races.
