SYSCO Spring Series Race 4, May 24, 2012


Here we are leading the pack. After a great start, we tacked to port only to realize the mark was attainable on the starboard tack. So we tacked back. Dumb move. We lost two boat lengths on Estrella Del Mar. But when we got to the location of the mark, we could not find it. The race was the "W" course, S-1-4-1-4-F. So by unanimous decree, we headed to Buoy 2. Where everyone was anchored. We joined the flotilla, but we were at the lead, at least. After about 20 minutes enjoying the respete Poncho came by with the "N" flag, abandoning the race. This will be the throw-away race.
