BVI Spring Regatta & Sailing Festival Day 2 - Stormin' Scrub Island Invitational © BVI Spring Regatta

It was a wild and windy day for the Scrub Island Invitational. With gusts hitting 30+ knots in a particularly dark squall that hit the racecourse, washing off the salty water that had already drenched those sailors on the rail as big seas washed over the sides.

Cruising Multihull, Bareboat, Cruising and Performance Cruising sailed directly from Nanny Cay finishing at Marina Cay, while Racing and Performance Multihulls sailed out around Ginger Island for a longer - wetter - course, also finishing at Marina Cay and the post-race party on the island hosted by Scrub Island Resort, Spa & Marina.

Cara, a Sunsail 40, took first in the Bareboat class on the 11 nautical mile race to Scrub Island. Other winners included the Elan 450 Emily of Cowes, taking first in Racing class; the HH66 Lee Overlay Partners III took first in Performance Multihull; Leopard 50 La Novia took first in Cruising Multihull, and the Salona 45 Panacea X a first in Performance Cruising.
