It was a weekend of contrasts in the 2025 China Bowl 4-race series, with challenging and exhilarating racing for the Raters on Saturday, with far lighter winds on the Sunday, as the last race was shortened due to a nearby thunderstorm. On the Saturday Paul Browning helming Osprey took two firsts to make him the clear favourite going into the Sunday. However Osprey had to retire in the first Sunday race due to gear failure and Jonny Smith helming Scamp took first place. In the last race a nearby thunderstorm meant the race officer shortened the race, but it produced the tightest possible finish with Osprey, Scamp and the Miles Palmer-helmed Vagabond all crossing the line within a couple of seconds. But it was Vagabond that took line honours, giving it second overall for the weekend.
