After racing was blown over on the first planned day of racing in Sydney, the ten teams in the Extreme Sailing Series have had some action-packed, intense racing. This photo gallery shows some of the action.

The closest battles are between Alinghi, The Wave and Muscat for points that will put them on the podium for the 2014 series.

The tight racing was captured by Mark Lloyd and these photos give a great taste of the action.

The Wave, Muscat have to win in Sydney and Alinghi has to be sixth or worse for the team to be able to take the Series win tomorrow.

Oman Air were on top form this afternoon and have stepped up into seventh position from yesterday’s 10th place.
