Day 5 Races
Star ClassWe finally got race 3 in today. We got out there at 10:00 for an 11:00 start. The wind was light and so we did not get started until about 15:00. We had a nice breeze at the start; 15 knots from 130 but that quickly dissipated. We did not have a great start but […]
Day 3
Star ClassWell, no race today. If I were to go into the details and tell you everything, I would have to compress the file in order to be able to get it to you. The bottom line is that there was a big bruha over the weigh in procedure yesterday and the committee lost the day […]
Day 4
Star ClassWell, it didn’t get any better today. After a 2-hour delay waiting for the wind to settle down, we got under way around 16:00 in 6 knots of wind from 230. We had a very good start in the right hand side of the line and about three minutes into the race we tacked and […]

Race Day 2
Star ClassWell the first good thing is that today didn’t cost $5K. The next decent thing is that we finished 8th in a race that was not straightforward. The wind was from the northeast again today (that is from the land) and so it was very shifty and puffy. Leaving the harbor we had a gust […]
Race Day 1
Star ClassThe day started badly and ended up costing $5K. I woke up to the uncomfortable feeling of stomach flu. That was at 03:00 so the rest of my night wasn’t any good. I layed around in bed until 11:00 then headed down to the boats. Phil had gotten everything ready so we left the dock […]

The Day After
Star ClassOne really special moment I forget to mention last night was when we arrived at the dock and the Olympic Sailing Center. There were the top 60 Optimist Sailors(15 years old and under) in the USA standing there applauding Phil and I. It was touching and very much appreciated. I celebrated the best I could […]
Day 8
Star ClassShort day at work for us. We got 5th in the first race of the day and wrapped up the victory. Step one accomplished. The rest of the fleet stayed out there and completed the last two races. Our training partners Andy Lovell/Magnus Liljedahl finished second. This is a fantastic result in light of the […]
