Some great racing for us on sunday morning, a mid fleet result but I think you need to temper that with a financial touch, we are one of the cheapest teams out there of the IRC boats. Props to Scoline though who did very well on I guess a similar budget!
The start was nailed with a port tack approach, only trouble is the helm decided to vary from the agreed tactic until the rest of the crew shouted at him! Upwind is where we lose it on our boat but the tight triangle sausage played to our strengths of sail handling by a practiced crew and ayso and running kite options.
We had some argie-bargy with Effusion and got the red flag out for a bit. Rules stuff, keeping clear, overlapped boats all that stuff. Good that we're in those issues with much faster boats underneath, shows we're doing something right.
