As much as I hate to say it... Mark has a point! Tad and Trey need to stop being the premaddonas and look over their shoulder every once and a while! We took a bearing of the mark a couple times at the start (until they provided it for us the last few races)
Brendon sailed 10 out of 12 races without glasses and he is extremely nearsighted. He had no problem finding it most of the time and when he did I just looked over my shoulder.
And Mark... i've said this before... were you at the regatta? Pick your battles my friend.
