There's always tomorrow...

Well, PRO Judy Hanlon really, really wanted to get us out there today.  And so we waited, and waited. Swapping tall tales, buying more than we should from Coral Reef and generally yucking it up. And our waiting, we thought, was rewarded when Judy sent us out about 2 pm in maybe 11 knots. Very civilized considering what we'd had all week. But then... the wind built, the committee boat kept drifting no matter how many anchor lines she put on the boat, and finally after working valiantly for 30 minutes, time ran out and she sent us back in. Still, we had a nice ride out and a fun ride back ... until we all had to dock simultaneously. These photos show us all approaching the docks!

Tomorrow is our last day but it promises (so far) to be moderate, so maybe we'll pack in four races or so before we have to say adieu to Sarasota.

This first photo is Eric Bussell and Chris Tesdal on Windtalker during the 11 knots phase...
 And this is us all coming home...
