In Race Two, three days after Race One, the “Turquoise” was disqualified for impeding the “Mascaret.” The race was easily won by the British yacht “Bona Fide” by a margin of more than five minutes. The crew missed the first race because clearance by French Customs was delayed, but skipper Howard Taylor arrived in time for the second race. The winner of Race One, the “Fémur,” however, did not finish the second race. In total, eight yachts competed in Race Two. The three foreign yachts placed first, third and fourth, with “Gitana” as the only French yacht positioned between them on second place.

Prizes for Race Two in this class were as follows: 1st – 2,000 francs; 2nd – 1,200 francs; 3rd – 900 francs; 4th – 600 francs; and 5th – 300 francs.
