Day six of the 44th Aegean Rally, sailed in the Gulf of Mirabello, Aghios Nikolaos, Crete, saw the IMS group A boat fleet set out with very unstable wind conditions. The first inshore race started after an hour delay with just 7 knots of northeasterly winds. Later on the wind changed direction and the racing committee changed the buoys for a fair course. First to cross the finish line and take line honours was SUPERFAST RACING (Farr52). The second race started after a while with better sailing conditions. An easterly breeze of 12 knots provided for a great start, especially for the big boats. SUPERFAST RACING took less than an hour to finish and take line honours again. But, winner of both races on corrected time was ALPHA BANK (JV49) skippered by Theodore Tsoulfas, a very experienced and talented young sailor. Tomorrow morning the 36 strong fleet will depart for the third destination, Ios Island.
