First day of the Star Eastern Hemisphere Championship at Reale Yacht Club Canottieri.
After two races world champion Diego Negri and crew Sergio Lambertenghi lead by four points after winning both races.
Second are Enrico Chieffi and Ferdinando Colaninno (4, 2). Third are Marin Misura and Tonko Barac (5, 3).
A great first day in the Gulf of Naples. Clear skies, with an unusual Grecale (northern) wind condition on the bay meant a lot of fun for all the crews competing for the silver star.
Racing continues through Sunday 1 May.
