On Wednesday the temp high of 7 degrees would be below my limit for sailing. But it is race day so I was down at the boat getting the boat prepped at 16:30. surprisingly there were few people heading out to the start. Once again we were the only boat in our fleet. Jr crew was seen by their boat but they did not appear on the start line. It must be cold!
We had another bad start. I hit the pin and did a fast 360. The course was from mark 1 to mark 0 with a westerly wind. Obviously we were well back from the other boats in our start. However we slowly caught up to everyone. perhaps this says more about the competition than our own skills?
The highlight of the evening was the hot buffet which on this late winter night (!?) was much appreciated.
