1st day: no races, no wind. 2nd day: 1 race in light wind, 2nd race in 18-20 with some recorded puffs in 24-27 knots with huge seas. 2 broken rudders (Szabo & Bustamante), 2 broken masts (Larrain, Chile, & Defazio of Uruguay). Others retired in heavy conditions. 3rd day: 3 races in nice 8-12 beautiful wind, calm seas. 4th day: 1 race 18 knots, light seas.
