Who needs TowBoatUS? Just call the Barba Roja!
Once again was in charge of the Barba Roja for the evening. Arrived at the start a bit late due to some late tacks while teaching new crew. The wind slowly fell off throughout the first leg, until we drifted with the tide up to the first mark shortly before the time limit expired. Rounded the mark, and immediately started drifitng sideways. Due to some race committee confusion we retired after the time limit expired. On the way in we found our main rival was having engine problems, and towed them into their slip. A long evening on the water but a pretty good one.
