Back from Spain and the story from Tavira is... more of the same on the water. 10-15, not a cloud in the sky and great racing! The current was even more of a factor today and created some big line sag opportunities for those who were on the ball. It was also a factor at the top mark where Ian - fresh off a 5th in race 6 - came storming along in 5th place at the 2 boat length circle but had called the layline a bit short and... came out in 40th. Ouch, especially since that was the topic of Coach Juan's chalk talk today but a teachable moment he won't repeat!
Preliminary results after 3 days:
Romain 30th (OCS-31-9 today)
Ian 44th (26-5-44 today)
Cooper 49th (55/23/41 today)
Alex 50th preliminary
TeamUSA has finished dinner and is owning the patio card games. Off to bed by 9:30, 3 days to go and keeping their eyes on the prize.
Standing by at the Albacore....
