Thursday's award of The Carphone Warehouse Pick of the Day goes to the Contessa 32 Blanco which is leading the class overall.
The Contessa 32 is a renowned sea boat that can cope with anything.
But on Thursday, as gusts came through shortly after their start, Blanco reminded us how 1970 vintage long keel designs behave downwind.
As Blanco rolled from side to side, while her helmsman fought for control, a sensible crew member was seen spread-eagled on the cabin top, hanging on for dear life!
