Leaders in the 49er are Stevie Morrison and Ben Rhodes, with John Pink and Rick Peacock in second and Dave Evans and Simon Hiscocks third.

In the 470 event, Nick Rogers and Joe Glanfield lead from Hannah Mills and Katrina Hughes with Christina Bassadone and Saskia Clark in third place. Racing continues Sunday.
