Hi Bob,
Congrats from Temerity -- we passed quite close to you about 1/4 nm outside the Bridge, you were looking good -- sorry we had no camera! Outstanding performance in a very tough year. You'll be boring your grandchildren with the tale one day
Cheers
David

Did you use your new staysail setup?

Thanks
Thank you for all the kind comments! Several months ago we made reservations for a family vacation up to Canada (Banff, Alberta). Since free air miles and timeshare points are covering most of the trip, it can't really be changed. Sadly, it means I'll be gone during the awards meeting. I hope someone can record all the stories. My blathering is already posted on a couple sites but I was really looking forward to hearing from the rest of you.
"Did you use your new staysail setup?"
Adrian, one more notch up in wind and I would have set the #4 on the new stay. We were doing well with a double-reefed main and jib top though. The JT is a paneled Kevlar sail and pretty bullet-proof. Flogging it would shake your teeth out though! At 125% LP it's more of a blast reacher - tool for the job this race.
