Race schedule[3]

Course area and course configuration
For the Finn course area C(harlie) was used. The location (54°27'30'’N, 10°17'450'’E) points to the center of the 1.5nm radius circle.[1][4] The distance between mark 1 and 3 was about 1.5nm.
Final results[5]
Due to the time limit for finishing of half an hour after the winner and light air conditions, only three Finn sailors were able to finish in race six.
