Yeah Man!! Just to have that checkered flag was best feeling in the world. Then all taken away, dropped down to third place. No worries, lots of fun. Getting the hang of handling her out there

We like to keep you guys guessing.

In our start we really got screwed. C-3 was to be the 3rd start and the SV were milling behind them. Our pace boat took off and we had 2 C3 boats sitting right in front of us. By the time we made it through that pack the rest of SV fleet was 500 yrds ahead with a green flag!

Still wouldn't have made a difference on Sunday, but it did piss me off a bit at the time.

It's all good now.
