Sunday held more great racing, with six more races sailed in each division. A division's Maarten Eenkema van Dijk and Margo Blagden stepped up the competition, with nearly all top 5 finishes. The team finished in 7th place overall, with a 5th place in A fleet and 7th place in B.

A division finished in 5th place over all, and an impressive 1st place in B division brought the team to a 3rd place over all in the regatta.
