Overnight the forecast for the second afternoon improved greatly with more wind predicted and crucially the forecast for rain had been revised. Sure enough after a slow and sunny start to the day the wind soon started to build around lunchtime and by 14:20 the first elimination had been resumed in 8-13 knots. The winners' final was completed just in time as Alberto Menegatti (Starboard / Point-7) claimed the first victory of 2014.
