Got down for the skippers meeting for 6pm.
Crewed with Will and his son Luke on Red Gypsy (Tanzer 26).
Never sailed on a Tanzer before. Very stiff, fast, no creaking.
Will got new sails last year, really nice.
We were in 2nd after the first upwind leg.
On the downwind 2nd leg, we had trouble with the whisker pole.
The pole ends would not clip on the mast attachement point or the clew of the sail.
It ended up going overboard; marked it with my GPS, but after the race, we could not find it.
On the final leg, we tacked too late, making sure we made the finish marks, allowing Idyl Ours and Patricia to finish just before us.
Fourth of five boats at the line, PHRF will change some of that.
