Brava Q8 still dominates

Following offshore race at the Rolex IMS World Championship

Last night it was Alberto Roemmers Reichel/Pugh maxi Alexia (above) which arrived the finish line in Capri to take line honours in the offshore race - in the second day of racing at the Rolex IMS World Championships.

Through the night the other boats arrived, delayed by the light winds. On corrected time after four races it is a Farr-fest with Pasquale Landolfi's Farr 49 Brava Q8 who is holding on to the lead of 'A' divsion ahead of Vincenzo Onorato's Farr 51 Breeze and the Farr 50, owned by H.M. King Harald V of Norway.

In division B, three Italian boats arrived in the offshore race to take first, second and third positions: Sexy, Capitani Coraggiosi and Jeckerson Seaqua. Provisional results after four races see in the B division, the Greek yacht Okyalos XII in first position, Team Revolution in second and, in third Don Alvaro.

Tomorrow, there will be two windward-leeward races of 12 miles each, off Capri. The wind is getting stronger and weather forecast promises the wind to be about 15-20 knots.

Overall results - class 0, 1
