I've been away from my computer for days. My congrats to all the competitors, and race organizers. I have to agree about Trey, makes me really happy to hear he won the 20 class!

Hey everyone. I'm uploadeding the video of the Royal Yellow, TVS1, and Mischa finish right now to youtube.

Once you see the video there you'll understand why it wasn't immediately uploaded.

Oh and by the way - all the videos that I took from the week are at my personal youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/tjpeco

Some of them were too long to uploaded to youtube - such as the hollywood start - so I'll work on cutting those up this week and uploading them in parts.

It was awesome ,It's over, I'm sad. Can't wait 'til next year.
Thank you to all the great competitors/friends that make this the pinnacle of my sailing year.
A huge thanks to Laurel Sonnenklar and her support crew and family for taking me in as one of their own. They truly made, what was a really tough year for me ,enjoyable.

yup - great race this year for sure. The weather was incredible. The first couple of days were very trying but, more importantly, still fast. This was the first year that we were pretty much in sight of the lead boat at the finish on all but one leg - which normally would almost guarantee a top three finish if you could keep your minor boat failures to a minimum. However, the 20's were all very very fast and extremely reliable this year. Every boat length gained was precious and the one capsize we suffered just shy of the finish line in Daytona cost us large!

Our starts this year were huge. We gained a great deal by punching out of the surf as fast as anyone. We've always had a great pusher with Daryl (who couldn't make the race this year) and Chris Titcomb stepped in without missing a beat. Frank and I seemed to be much more coordinated on the starts this year as our experienced together in getting through the surf has matured significantly. We're now confident in hoisting the kite just after the start gun but before the pusher has relinquished control of the back of the boat and have it driving us through the surf immediately. What a rush that is to see that you instantly picked up three to six positions in the first three minutes of the race.

In years past, I've felt cursed on the leg to Tybee but Frank and I talked in great detail and made some very calculated moves that got us on the beach where we wanted to be right when the sea breeze kicked in. As we skimmed the belly of our boat over sandbar after sandbar with Todd Hart in hot pursuit, we basked in the sun powered seabreeze and flat water found right on the shore line until we met back up within a couple of minutes of the leaders just before the finish. I can't wait to see the SPOT replay of that leg.

We had some new stuff on our boat this year - namely a Novasail tactical GPS (http://www.nova-sail.com/html/product_ns360RC.html) that has a dual line display. It was a real boost to help us maintain focus and speed as we had both a compass heading and speed display. I would watch our speed to make sure we stayed in the groove and it was a real advantage to be able to see that constantly and identify early that the conditions changed slightly or that I had not been focusing on speed 100%. I can't wait to try it out on my a-cat around the cans. At this point, I can promise you won't see me in a distance race without one.

Finally had a good internet connection once I got home and was able to post the interviews. I think the internet connections were timing out trying to upload the HD vids. Next year might be better to just do standard def unless better connections. HD files are huge. I had to get a new computer just to process them. I am working on the onboard stuff now.

Does anyone have Bastian's e-mail address? He has one of my SD cards and I need to send him my mailing info.

Please PM me if you do, thanks.

Hey, you were not supposed to see that one yet. I need to get approval from Larry. He was worried about language.

I used a GoPro HD Hero. Anyone have his e-mail address? I was going to call him but it is hard to send a link via vm.
