So, unlike the extra windy first race , now crews were tested for their patience and focus on the scope of passing the finishing line, by sails.
Finally, all but one, made it to enter Livadia port , finding the most welcoming people to secure their lines and provide them all the necessities they needed.
Thursday 21 was dedicated to rest and long dives to the crystal clear waters of Tilos. At the evening the second medal award ceremony is planned to take place, according to the official results of the racing committee (http://www.aegeanregatta.gr/gr/race-results-el/item/356-apotelesmata-deyteris-istiodromias-2014.html ) .
