The winds challenged the sailors all week with directional changes and especially finding the best way to A mark when it was tucked up inside the soutwest corner of the bay. This venue always promises to make the sailors work for the hardware! A special thanks to the FWYC for their gracious support of yet another North American multihull championship. These folks always know how to put on a great show. I wish everyone a safe journey home.
