No time delays (other than windshift-related) here in Newport.

Look for me in the red (probably only) PFD.

Seabreeze is on, about 10 kts at the moment, all assets on the move.

ETNZ went over at the top, nearly landed the wing on the other mark boat. Wind was 10 kts...

Winners were ART, LRP, USC.

KOR leading USC out of next start.

Phone quit for a bit...

Coutts got a penalty, Swordfish is now tied 1-1.

ETNZ is still over, LRP is sailing a solo race to take that series.

KOR and USS next at 1446.

There was almost zero wind...I'm guessing after the race was over, they all went to the back to pee at the same time and it just went over backwards.

I've had the same thing happen to me on my kid's Hobie 14...

Um no, they flipped in the match race, sea breeze was on the low end, 10 knots.

USS and KOR both OCS, Spithill better rounding and small lead, extended to 6 seconds first time to us.

Jobson still going on about "They said you can't match race on cats..." Really, we're still going down that road???

USS wins the series.

Breeze is up, Coutts and Swordfish up next for last race of the set.
