Day 3 hosted shifty 8 - 10 knots of breeze and calm seas.  Many boats foiled and streached their wings along the Dubai coast.

Race 5 started in 9 - 10 knots of wind and was dominated by Arnaud P as he vied for top stop at every mark.  Brad Funk however keep his cooled and challenged him, finally taking line honors after a 40 minute race.

Race 6 had a slight change of wind direction and a couple of knots lost.  Dalton Bergan dominated the fleet during every leg rounding first on nearly every mark and gate.

Race 7 saw Martin Gravare push the gun to the limit.   AMac however dictacted to the fleet where he should be at the first windward leg.  However Arnaud P took the mantel at the end of the race.
