The story of the first race changed as the two twin boats turned the first downwind buoy: Caixa chose the right side while Subaru the left one, a choice that resulted to be excellent for X Sport/Subaru that gained advantage on the Caixa Galicia little by little. As a result, at the last upwind buoy X Sport/Subaru turned first, Caixa second and Bribon third. On corrected time: X Sport/Subaru placed second behind Balearia, Bribon was third and Caixa Galicia fourth.
The second race was influenced by many wind¹s shifts and at the end the total absence of wind favoured the smaller boats as Banco Espiritu Santo, skippered by Jochen SCHUMANN, was first on corrected time. Bribon, the boat of His Majesty Juan Carlos of Spain was second, Balearia third Caixa Galicia fourth and X Sport/Subaru eighth.
The overall standings is: Caixa Galicia 16 points, X Sport/Subaru 15 points and Bribon in the third place with 23 points.
In the IMS 600 gruop, the leadership of Italtel sailed by Vasco VASCOTTO goes on after the two consecutive victories of Day Four with 12 points. In second place is Zurich with 23 points, in third place Husa Hoteles with 23 .
