We've been busy the past few weeks working on the third a cat, taking exams, and sailing our new boat. We picked the C2 up on Friday May, 11 and set it up on Saturday. May 12th was the Bird Key Sarasota Bay cup. The final race we were able to see how the boat handled in a 12 to 15 knot sea breeze and it did great, holding 1st place until the final leg. We rigged up some new systems to better focus on the sailing aspect of our training as opposed to constantly screwing around with bound up control lines and sheets, a problem that has plagued us for some time now. Monday was a great day with a 15 to 20 knot northwesterly wind that had us cruising down the bay downwind. Tomorrow looks good with a 10 to 15 knot forecast.
