You guys rounded, set the spin, gybed, went left (looking downwind) and you went out on the wire, I think. I was already around just ahead of you, going deeper, much deeper, after my gybe I looked back and you guys were holding high, going fast, but higher than me, as I was going deep.
I can't say for sure which race or which leg, but let's get Terry to tell us what he saw being on the mark boat, as he had a much better view of relative positions, boat speed, etc. It's very hard to have any objective view when you are on the cat, or out on the wire, trimming the spinn, steering, watching for puffs, etc. I know I didn't see a lot of stuff and nearly hit an A cat! I found when I tried to heat it up too much, I put the bows under to the mast, a couple of times, so after that, I was trying to get it to plane instead.
Terry, you out there?
