It was only a 4 race series due to high swells and winds but we had a great time despite the 5:30am wake up calls to get through the 7:30am bridge! We were tied last night with the guys on Storm for 2nd with the cookson 50 untouchable. The race today was up to the NE side of the island and back it started in about 23 knots of wind so we carried our number 4 however, it moderated to a consistent 17 knots on the east side of the island so we struggled with the number 4 to keep speed but decided not to do a change down to the 3. <\/p>\n

\nAt the top mark we hoisted the A2 and stormed down the run until we had an unfortunate explosion of the sail in only 19 knots of wind… not good… we quickly hoisted the A4 and at the bottom mark we put up the 3 and reached into the finish. On the downwind leg we pulled away from Storm. The Chance crew from San Francisco who chartered the boat I think had a good time and did a good job of sailing an unfamiliar boat. I will now organise repairs and fly home to San Francisco for 9 days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
