3-10 Ton Race Two, Open

In Race Two only one day later, 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 “Femur,” 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.
