A light and shifty day

“Today’s shifty and light conditions really tested the sailors, some triumphed and some had a rough time. The keelboat match racing competition was very tough and intense, they tried their best to gain as many wins to advance but missed the semi-finals by a match. Tomorrow will be a crucial day, the team will be going on full speed to secure their podium positions, most importantly, do the best they can at the Asian Games.” — Mark Robinson, Team Manager
