Saturday was shared with the D-Zero's and International Canoe's. The aim of the day was for short action packed racing and minimal faff and that's exactly what the race officer served up with four 35-40 minute three lap races back to back.

The UK D-ONE fleet returned from the Italian Tour to Castle Cove Sailing Club for the UK National Championships and enjoyed an excellent event as a separate class within Weymouth Regatta, along with a great turnout of 109 local and visiting boats.
