After another frustrating night where the dusk lull in breeze delayed Moonblue 2 and Aussie Maid for three hours in sight of the finish and prevented them from challenging for the IRC Overall title which provisionally belongs to Subic Centennial. Jaywalker and Shahtoosh crossed the line before midnight on Sunday, provisionally giving Jaywalker 2nd overall on IRC, and first place in IRC Division B.

Watchers had to wait overnight to see if Dream could pull of an 0400hrs finish to take the corrected time honours, but she ran out of breeze and finished just before 0800hrs today, to take the lead in IRC Premier Cruising ahead of Shahtoosh and Moonblue 2.

With Walawala finishing just after 1000hrs, the finish line team, provided by Manila Yacht Club, had a three hour wait for the trio of Challenge, Harlequin and Crystal to finish, leaving Xiphias, Larabella, Harmony, Thea and Cave Canem out on the water.

Provisional results are available at http://www.rhkyc.org.hk/chinasearace/results.htm
