On the third day of the RC44 Trapani Cup 2013 there were perfect sailing conditions for the 13 competing international teams at Trapani.

Three races saw three separate race winners, in a day where consistency was hard to come by. It was Team Aqua (Chris Bake/Cameron Appleton) who managed stay out of trouble and jump to the top of the leader-board at the halfway point of the regatta. There were race wins for the French team Aleph Racing (Hugues Lepic/Mathieu Richard), the home town heroes, Team Italia (Massimo Barranco/Francesco Bruni) and the team from Gibraltar (John Bassadone/Vasco Vascotto).

In the overall standing Team Aqua lead Team CEEREF (Igor Lah/Michele Ivaldi) by just two points with Artemis Racing (Torbjorn Tornqvist/Paul Cayard) in third.
