Bacardi Cup-Race 3

It looked promising. In this wind direction the left side is usually favored. We started near the […]

Bacardi Cup-Race 1
Star ClassToday started off slowly. The forecast was for 5-10 knots from the SSW. Eventually the wind was supposed to go all the way to the WSW. There is a cold front expected tonight and WNW winds 10-15 for tomorrow. However, the gradient was weak today and it was very hot. For 2 hours, from 1200-1400, […]
March 6, 2004 Training Day on Biscayne Bay
Star ClassYesterday we had a day ashore, working on our masts, and getting items on our work list checked off. It was nice to be off the water for a day. I went to the gym late in the afternoon with our Sam and had a good high energy workout. Sam has changed our workout routine […]

Race Day 3
Star ClassWe had our best and worst today. In fact 4 out of the top 5 had their worst race today. The wind was 8 knots in the first race from 125 and 6 knots in the second race from 120. In the first race, we won the pin end and were able to tack and […]
Race Day 2
Star ClassToday we had some consistency and some luck. The day started out with 16-22 knots from the Northwest. This is typically a very shifty direct as the wind comes off the shore and today was typical. Sometimes the left looks good and sometimes the right comes good. Very hard to know. In the first two […]
