  • Playing with a J/105

Last Wednesday of the season in the books. A crowded downwind start, but we were able to do some clever maneuvering and get a clean lane. Some issues getting a kite up, but once it was set we rolled past a non-spin J/30 and kept pace with a non-spin J/105. Tidy mark rounding and a solid beating leg, followed by a reach to the finish. In classic fashion we gained half a knot when we put a staysail up, and carried it a bit too long so we gained half a knot again when we took it down. Great crew work as has been par for the course the back half of this season.
