ROELOFARENDSVEEN, THE NETHERLANDS-(11-4-2004) On Sunday, the 264 young competitors had 2 races to sail. It was cloudy but there were also some sunny spells. Wind started from Northerly directions, mostly 4 – 8 knots, but tended to shift to the West. At the end of the day two races were completed, both shortened for the last starting groups, due to lack of wind (first race) and major wind shifts (second race). All scheduled races have been completed now, so we have the Gold, Silver and Bronze fleet for the two final races of Monday to decide the victor of the 19th International Easter Optimist Regatta. For the moment, of 12 competing countries, Sweden and the Netherlands still seem to have the best teams, having in total 9 sailors in the top ten after 5 races.
