For those following along, we are on a Southern track conceding some distance to the finish in hopes of gaining favorable winds/angles later in the race. Not always an easy discipline.
Did Barry already post about day one and our Catalina rounding in rather dramatic (perfect lay-line from 26 miles) and rock star like (helicopters, chase boats, cameras) fashion? I suspect so.
Currently we're diving into a path that feels much more like day six than three - very deep angles, warm and steady 15 kt winds. sunscreen, big hats, etc. Jay Crum, our awesome navigator, is responsible for putting us in this (what feels like) favorable position. He has done this run more times than I have fingers and toes, so I am feeling good about it as well. Have you noticed that it's us and our friends on Kokopelli and Reinrag down at this latitude? ...Northern California representing.
I had better hit the rack.
