Several hundred spectator boats
took in some great fleet racing action on Saturday
at the Valencia Louis Vuitton Act 5.
It was a hot day on the waters off Valencia and
for the big spectator fleet, the light conditions
meant patience would likely be a virtue.
In a repeat of yesterday, a general recall was sounded
immediately after the start, and the recall was
replaced by a postponement when the wind shifted.
After a short delay, the Race Committee re-aligned
the course and with the conditions more stable,
racing started at 14:45 when a seven-knot Easterly
breeze filled in.
Victory Challenge was strong on the water in both
races, and left the race course leading the overall
points table.
However a protest by the Race Committee against
the Swedes for a possible measurement infringement,
and a protest by Victory Challenge against the Race
Committee for the scoring in the first race of the
day means the results are very provisional.
