Team Maclaren won the 2011 Santa Maria Cup
today 3-1 over Team Bossard from France. The wind was up in the
mid-teens from the north west, the temperatures were mid 50's, and the
sailing was great. And to top it all, Liz Lewin, our 4th crew member,
was awarded the Eleanor Ruth Wilcox Memorial Trophy for Top Bowperson
and overall best smile.

Racing started just after 9:30am in a nice 6kt breeze at the 2011 Santa Maria Cup.
However, the 6kts was short lived as the wind died to nothing just as
the second set of flights of the day ended. It wasn't until around
3:45pm that the wind began to increase again from almost 180 degrees to
what it was before. And it continued to build to a nice 12kts for the
final two flights of the day. We had a good day and won our
quarterfinal 3-1 over Silva (ARG) and are now 1-0 in the semi finals
against Dellenbaugh (USA).

We
feel much more alive today after racing in spite of sailing seven races
in very fickle winds. The weather today was pleasant with much less
humidity, a refreshing breeze and partial cloud cover keeping the
temperature down a little. However, it did present tricky conditions
which made for very difficult racing if you dropped behind. We had a
good day again though and ended up with a 12-2 record after the two
qualifying round robins. We finished on equal points with Julie Bossard
(France) and team, but lost on a tie with them after dropping a race
to them today. This seeded us second going into the quarterfinals, up
against Martina Silva (Argentina) and team. After the one race of the
quarterfinals' series, we are up 1-0.
