Virgin Gorda served up perfect match race conditions for the first day of the 2014 RC44 Championship Tour. A steady 11-14 knot easterly breeze and flat water allowed the race committee to complete all nine flights inside the confines of Virgin Gorda's beautiful North Sound. Penalties flew and a few collisions meant it was an exciting day for both the sailors and the umpires alike. Defending match race champions Team Aqua, with tactician Cameron Appleton at the helm, made sure they stayed at the top of the leaderboard, losing just one of their eight matches to Synergy Russian Sailing Team, with Ed Baird driving.Watch the match racing highlights from the RC44 Virgin Gorda Cup including interviews with Andy Horton (USA), Ed Baird (USA) and Cameron Appelton (NZL)
