Had a tough day of racing after being forced ashore on Wednesday. Thursday morning we had the same type of look to the day, and we sat postponed on shore for an hour yesterday waiting for a wind report from the racecourse. Ultimately we sailed two races in 17-22 knots of breeze and 3 foot chop.
We broke our mainsheet block before the first race and were forced to start at the unfavored end after we scrambled back to the line from the fix. We managed a 16th in the first race. In race two we had a much better start down at the pin end but never really got our speed going and finished 12th. It was a bit of a humbling day and I’m not really all the happy about the results, but I think we’re progressing.
Great photos from Fried yesterday. We’re black numbers 8361, bow 10.
Nassau Yacht Club’s website has full results. Look for three races today.
