A reprieve from the heavy rains and good winds led the day for Race 3 in the Irish Times Series. Five boats headed out for a trek around Koh Dok Mai and back to Chalong Ba.

Despite a foul up at the start with the spinnaker, Moto Inzi soon overtook early leaders Sidewinder and The Frog to lead the way and round the destined island to take line honours and take victory in a time of just under two hours leaving the two catamarans as well as fellow classmate NiƱa to win on corrected time.

Meanwhile, Linda, in Racing and the sole monohull enjoyed an easy but well-earned victory in Racing.
