A pause in racing today due to a return to high winds provides the opportunity to introduce a group of youngsters competing at the event with, or against their well know experienced fathers.

Will these Young Guns be the next Top Guns?

It certainly bodes well for the future of the most successful 2 person sailing option on the planet.

Racing start again Tuesday 21st for the final two heats.

Full results available here.
