By now, most of you would have seen that we finished this morning, over 2 hours ahead of Magnitude. The team was ecstatic with the victory. It has been a long road.
We sailed hard all day yesterday and night, doing a few changes to keep the boat on course and pointing towards the mark. Magnitude had to gybe down to the line while we hauled straight to the mark. I’ll try and add a few tid bits of the race that we did not post during the race for various reasons.
For example, on the second night with the kite up, we blew up one of our primary kites for the moderate air. So we had to be careful with the other kites to make sure we conserved our assets.
We are all tired and looking forward to some rest and nice meals.
