A long inshore race was the order of day five at Panerai British Classic Week with the fleet enjoying a massed start off Cowes followed by a 27 mile course that took them as far west as East Leap and as far east as North Stourbridge, with plenty of bumps and circuits in between. This fifth race in the series was a tough one with a very shifty breeze ranging from sub-five to over twelve knots. Mix in some tricky tidal conditions and it all added up to a tough but wonderfully sunny day on the water.
