Racing began on schedule at day one of the 2010 South American Championships; however light to marginal winds limited the race officer to starting two races.  A good result for Argentina who lead the under 17 boys and girls divisions.

Nicolas Godoi (ARG 199) posted a first and a second to lead the boys, just one point ahead of Felipe Beltran (BRA 12) with a first and a third.

Valentina Serigos (ARG 421) went one better and posted two first to start her campaign; behind her it is very close between ARG 302, BRA 167, and ARG 363.

In the open division Diego Feitosa (BRA 866) leads from Maximo Sergio (ARG 414) on a tie break.

Tomorrow, an earlier start is planned - and, if the weather forecast holds, 3 races will be run.
