Racing to Continue Tuesday Afternoon

They will proceed at seven minute intervals as described yesterday.

14.30 Group A repechages
Women's single, Men's single, Men's pair, Men's double, Men's four

16.00  Group B repechages
Lightweight women's double, Lightweight men's double, Lightweight men's four, Men's quad

Group A and B equal a total of 22 races and include all repechages that will lead on to semi-finals.

As the day has progressed the meltemi winds have been reducing and as of 14.00 EEST there was a strong tail wind coming directly down the 2000 metre course from the north. Conditions were equal across all six lanes and small waves meant that at present crews have kept splash guards on their boats.

The forecast for Wednesday is even better than Tuesday and the proposal is to start at 8.30am with the original programme of A and B semi-finals being raced. Then at 10.20am the eight remaining repechages will start (women's double, women's pair, women's eight, men's eight) followed by the C and D semi-finals.
