After the break, Ty Beach took over to RD the Odom Fleet. The winds had increased somewhat and moved more westerly, but there were still some big shifts and holes to contend with. There were many lead changes and close finishes to delight the Peanut Gallery!

Keith Sternal had his new Odom in the water for its inaugural Points appearance; Welcome, Keith!
