Another great Cuttyhunk event. Perfect reaching conditions for us and it showed. Had a good start while exiting the harbor and the A0 was working for us until things got funky by Fort Wetherill. We found a great current outflow (please all: remember what that looks like!) and in the light air it really kept …

Once again we won the weekend! hahaha The actual race, not so much, with a 9/14. BUT, I think we were literally just a minute or two out of THIRD — we saw Dark Star finish right in front of us and they were 4th. We had a pretty tight wrap going on the downwind …

We are getting into a nice groove with the start of the summer series. New found windward AND leeward speed is helping us get in front (and gain clear air) and then hold it in the downwind. “White Lightning” is a pleasure to sail and is delivering in both lighter air and in a breeze. …

So we’ve had a couple of races now under our belt and I think I can report that our speed and point appear good. In the LLS regatta we saw good upwind performance, and had an ability to hang with our closest competitors (Hawk, Samba and Zephyros) and I think actually gain some ground uphill. …

Good sail Sunday/yesterday. The mast stayed up (LOL) and boat showed (at least numerically) good speed and point. Moreover, the rig is at a “reasonable” base setting, both in terms of forestay length and shroud tension, so I think we can now use JYC and Leukemia Cup to get a sense of our relative performance …

Hey all, The rough schedule is at last in Crew Manager. I hope you weren’t bombarded with a ton of emails — I attempted to turn off email notification, but it look likes it might have come back on today. :/ Regardless, please take some time and look through the events, days and assignments. Nothing …

Just a little test of new photo capability! Plus it's Spirit!
Thanks Bill. Good times despite a slow start. Vento was missed! Odyssey retired.
