Yes I saw that, I was hoping for a few more details. It sucks to go all that way and then end up sitting out the first day.

Looks like they have three races in so far for day 2 (according to Team Intepid's update on Facebook). The conditions also look like they might be a bit challenging today. Anyone know more?

Results are up and there is now a throwout.

It's a two boat race at the top!

Mixed and all female crews doing well too.

Anyone know what happened to Matt and G on day one? I saw they had a lot of DNF, DNS but then got an 8th in that last race?

Not too much in the Facebook updates. Sounds like the boys are having a better day today getting to the top mark first and ending up in a 3 boat slugfest for the top.
