DAY 4 - MAYNARD CLAIMS LINE HONOURS IN AN OUTSTANDING SHOWDOWN OF THE WORLD'S FASTEST, MINUS ALBEAU WHO FAILS TO MAKE THE FINALS... The spectators lining Sotavento's beautiful beach were awarded with some world-class racing on day four of the competition following a gruelling five hours on standby for the sailors. With all of the signs present that the usually consistent trade winds would kick in, the competitors were at the event site early, preparing their gear for battle. However, a competing breeze put the competition on hold for much of the day, allowing the fans to mingle with the PWA's stars until the wind began to build late in the afternoon. With 14 to 20 knots out to sea at 15:30 race director, Juan Antoinio Aragon made the decision to run one full round of frantic slalom. The down wind course was set close to the shore with four gybes to the finish, creating a spectacular site for the crowds lining the beach.
