Out in the Solent a chilly North-westerly breeze was funnelling down Southampton Water and spreading out into the race area and the startline between Hill Head and East Knoll. The breeze was patchy and came complete with oscillating shifts to keep competitors on their toes and the results ever-changing until the finish.
