After five races on the first day of the 2007 Farr 30 Great lakes Championship, John Podmajersky's Illusion has opened up a four point lead on the rest of the fleet.  Podmajerky's team showed remarkable consistency in posting no finishes outside of the top three all day.  The regatta is by no means over however, with Nelson Stephenson's Team Bold and Bruce Eddington's Southern Sun close behind.
