BFD in race 2 at Bacardi Cup

March 9th, 2010 in General.

Thankfully longtime Star crew Chris Rogers was here this weekend without a skipper so I could have somebody to sail with after Brad decided he would be better spending the week with the doctors. We had two starts today, the second of which went off under the threat of black flag. Usually this means line sag should be taken advantage of. Unfortunately I took a little too much advantage of the sag and was one of about 12 boats called OCS and given a starting penalty and removed at the windward mark. Adding insult to injury, Chris and I capitalized on great speed with our light air jib trading tacks with Peter Bromby and Magnus Liljedahl as we rounded the first mark overlapped with the first place boat. We’ll call it a moral victory? More unfortunately all the SDYC guys including us, Reynolds and Szabo were all on the BFD list. Sounds like a conspiracy theory brewing? We’ll have to wait until tomorrow to redeem ourselves.
