RONSTAN Course Racing- July 7, 2002

I would have to say that yesterday was a light wind day compared to what we had today. Very stong westerlies with even stonger gusts. I think it's the first time I've ever seen Steve get slammed by a gust. To bad i had to see it from so close. I rode over his sail and got slammed right in front of him. I don't think he even noticed me. Now that's what you call consentration or maybe you should get your eyes checked Steve. Nevertheless we both rode on to salvage the 2nd race.

Sails were in the 9.0 to 7.0 range. I was on my 2003 Aerotech 8.3 VMG proto with 64cm Tectonics.

I'm still trying to recover from the weekend so I'll just say this. Them's Wold Cup conditons!!



Special thanks to RONSTAN for supporting this event and to the SFYC for keeping the tradition. Congratulations to all who competed. It is always an accomplishment. Especially this year.
