Race Stats
Start
A bit better to start at the pin. Stella also the closest to the line so taking good advantage. Katabatic managed to catch up on them. Shotgunn bearing away, probably no reason to do it.
1st Upwind
Stella advancing on the way to the left and after the tack. However losing almost the whole lead because of being over the layline.
- Stella over the layline. Going low and losing
- Motions way over the right layline.
Clean sailing numbers
Top Mark
Stella and Katabatic losing on the last tack. Shotgunn the best with near to layline right side approach. Adrenaline and Motions doing much less upeind distance, cutting the offset better.
1st Downwind
Adrenaline the fastest, Shotgunn following. Stella and Katabatic not far from them, even though they had a few broaches and big losses. Katabatic even overtaking Stella, but losing at the broach. Shotgunn came close, losing some meters at the last part with extra gybe.
Gate Rounding
Stella with the cleanest rounding and fastest to do 100m down and up. Big part due to solid upwind sailing after. No significant gate bias, so all about the rounding. Shotgunn going low after rounding. Motions good despite reaching to the gate mark.
2nd Upwind
Stella losing some meters to katabatic after the first tack and some bear aways. Later increased it again and Katabatic had bad top mark rounding. Shotgunn losing all the time. Adrenaline gaining well in the 2nd part. This is the first time the wind was going to the right during the upwind. Motions also not bad on the left layline, gaining a bit, too.
Clean sailing numbers
2nd Downwind
Stella extending the lead. A bit skewed course. Adrenaline gaining on port tack on Motions quite some meters. Katabatic steadily losing.
