Yea he won. He sailed well and was a point up at the end. He took a RAF after the regatta so as not to mess up the scoring in a series he is not in.
The main thing is we had a good showing at a yacht club that has invited us back. This was never a F-18 vs viper thing it was about making a good in road with the more active and prestigious yacht clubs in the San Fran Bay.
We are trying to build a stronger fleet and have a nice series of places to race. This was an invitational race and F-18 was invited. Maybe next year we can have an open multihull class but till then we have to respect the wishes of the people putting on the regattas.
