The Laser 4000, Laser 5000 and 18ft Skiff Open Meetings at HISC were reduced to one day. Lack of wind on the Sunday canned all racing at the club. Results were therefore based on the Saturday's racing.

Three races were completed on the Saturday with David Merchant and Alayne Seymour from Grafham Water SC leading the Laser 4000, in second were Hugh Watson and Susanna Bickford and third Chris Webber and Jim Baldwin.

In the Laser 5000 event another Grafham pair, Thomas Sauvel and John Mozall won with a clean-sweep of the races, second Niall Ferguson and Matt Brierwood and third Richard Owen and Andy Mount.

And in the 18ft Skiff event Ronstan, sailed by Dave Hall, Paul and Tom Partington won two of the races and with a second in the final race took the series. Second overall and winners of the third race were Investic, Mason Woodworth and his crew, and third fat Face, Grant Rollerson and crew.
