I was within 20 miles of Juana's after our 50 mile bike ride this am and couldn't resist trying to get over there for the start. I got there probably 10-15 minutes after. I'm guessing it was a one start fits all like they usually do.
Anyway, what I saw was I'm guessing 35-50 boats on a downwind leg with the wind between 10-14 out of the east. Temp 89 degrees. Not a cloud in the sky! In other words, a perfect day to sail. It was really a beautiful site!
All I would like to know at this point is who the guy was sailing on spinnaker alone?? I couldn't see any other sail, and I was using binoculars. The thing is, he was doing pretty good! I don't have a clue what he will do when he rounds the mark. (which is usually 14 miles near Bob Sykes Bridge, Pensacola Beach)
