The third day of the Gaastra Dragon Worlds was a very difficult one. In a very light breeze and beautiful, 27 degrees, weather, the competitors had some difficult and long racing to do. Jorgen Schonherr (DEN 396) won the first race. Second race was won by Ruslana Taran (UKR 9).

The Dutch Gaastra blokes Marc Blees, Ben Kolff and Gerben van de Werff showed to be some serious competitors, not to under estimated, they did a second and 11th place.

Tomorrow is the Lay day.
