| Sail for Gold: Lots of Wind in Weymouth, GBR, Day 2 | | Print | |
|
September 15th, 2009
Weymouth, GBR We had one very windy race today at the Sail for Gold regatta. They sent us out in a lull of 15-20knt, but as we went into sequence the wind picked up to 25-30knt. Hair-raisng stuff.
Internet is very intermittent so will write a fuller report tomorrow about today and
tomorrow.
Briefly, we did sail our race and won ...exciting race...we got a penalty upwind
on the first beat but pulled a sweet move to burn it. Anyway more
details tomorrow. You can check the results at the regatta
website.
I would like to thank Carmeuse for their
continued support of my campaign for the 2012 Olympics in London, England.
I would also like to thank USSTAG for their support.
Sail Hard,
Anna
