On the third day of the FAREAST 28R European Sailing Championship in Limassol, a dynamic and challenging day unfolded as the wind conditions shifted throughout the races. Starting at a robust 20-22 knots with the wind angle close to 80 degrees, it gradually shifted to 100 degrees after the second race. The third race encountered winds of 17-18 knots, and by the fourth, it moderated to 14-15 knots.

The competition showcased both the unpredictability of the wind and the skills of the sailors. Despite Par Svardson remaining on the top of the rankings, he experienced a setback in the second race, losing several positions. As a result, Ryzkhov Nikolai is following close behind.
