Good to great starts had us in the top group in every 1st beat. However, we were plagued with sluggish speed, thanks to the old boat (feels like soggy cardboard compared to the boat we sailed last week), our new rig still breaking in which threw off our tune and generally too tight of vang on the beats. So for tomorrow, very vang cognizant, and aware that our rig may still be moving.
We were also plagued by some poor boathandling at key moments which cost us and we will work on remedying that for the future. Boathandling is something we can control out here and we will focus on it over the next few windy days.
