Quite far out and no coast effect

Start

Pretty big pin end bias. 54m meters of upwind distance between the ends. Adrenaline probably a bit over some seconds before the gun.

1st Upwind

Very unstable wind and course slewed a lot to the right. Since it was short in comparison to the start line, pin end boats had just a bit of sailing on starboard tack. Adrenaline went very soon over the layline. Stella Maris got some nice lift on starboard and at the end the big left shift and was in front at the top.

Shotgunn actually had the best upwind, but started way behind so could not catch up.

Stella and Shotgunn using the righty and lefty the best

Short upwind and long line. Big difference in how much the course is skewed for Rc and pin end boats

Top mark

Shotgunn the fastest in 100m and back to the marks. Adrenaline and Pericolosa losing a lot.

1st Downwind

Big left shift and going straight to the finish. Stella made it without gybing and gained even more.
