Race Area
The wind almost parallel to the shore.
Start
Some pin bias. All boats closer to RC. New Wave locking Defiant out of the start with good timing for themselves.
1st Upwind
Pretty skewed course and all the boats have tacked to the right side. New Wave gaining on others. Gamecock has tacked on Defiant and ended up quite above the layline, losing meters. Vigilant too early and a bit over the right layline, losing meters to the leader, too.
Top Mark
Very similar top-mark performance, vigilant gaining a few seconds due to no need to tack and not over the layline that hard
1st Downwind
Defiant and Gamecock luffing hard after the hoist. They have gained some of their loss back after the gybe, with Defiant winning on Gamecock. Then at the end, right shift arrived and New Wave was going low and fast due to it and stretching more to Vigilant
Gate Marks
Some bias, favoring right turn. Everyone gaining on New Wave. Especially Vigilant that was clean ahead.
5-6 seconds jump by boats on the left mark. Defiant and Gamecock losing a bit of it due to compromised lane
2nd Upwind
Vigilant coming close to New Wave, but went way over the right layline. Even New Wave was already over the layline. Gamecock sailing a knot slower, covered by Defiant.
Gamecock very red on port tack.
2nd Downwind
Almost the same time for all boats. New Wave and Vigilant sailing lower and slower, but with similar performance to other two.
