Bob Kennedy (3571) continues to hold a slight edge over Jens Biskaborn (7663) while ...  
..
Peter Rahn (286) and Len Macdougall battle it out ...
..
... not far behind. Bob (second from left) has a challenge to keep his wind clear and ...
..
... meets it nicely as the fleets head up towards the turn at mark #4.
..
Len (6732) works to keep the inside overlap ...
..
... on Peter (286).
..
A mess coming up at mark #4. How long can Bob (3571) keep clear air? It looks like Jens (7663, second from right) will get the last laugh since he will get to sail higher and thus, faster, on his way to the turn.
..
Jens has beaten Bob (r) around the mark. Bob must now watch out for Peter (286)
who made a great gybe and made sure he went high first and fixed the spi second.
..
Yep! There he goes, in 2nd place now ahead of Bob and Len (6732).
..
A close Darts game.
..
Starting the second beat, Jens (far left) maintains a nice lead over Len and Peter (3rd and 4th from left).
..
A long starboard past the RC boat for the leaders.
..
Having gone a bit further right, Len (6732) has gained enough to force Peter (286) to bear away into 3rd place.
..
Bob (3571) will benefit if the next shift is a knock but for now ...
..
... he is in dirty air from the Y-Flyer and in 4th place.
..
Bob (3571) checks on the feasibility of tacking and ...
..
... wisely does so - into a bit of a lift.
..
Still, Bob has some ground to make up!
