my only critique is that during your spinnaker hoists and douses, you might want to rely on your autopilot more so both of you can work pit and bow - would probably increase the speed of the maneuvers

Thanks, we are gradually learning to trust our third crew member Otto more and more 😂

Great Job! Super fun racing against you guys! Question: did you take your kite down because you felt you could go similar speed, but more on-target to the mark? That’s why we took ours down, and we actually wish we had kept it up. Curious if you have the same regret, or if you feel it was the right call.

I wish we had some good reason. We just mistook green buoy G"1" with Blossom rock and started to get ready to round it. You might imagine how stupid we felt when realized this mistake 🙂

[@OurLadyDefiant]

@@SunFastCam ahhhh, yep, I can relate. If you haven’t seen our recap of that race, check it out. We have some awesome footage of you guys surfing our stern wake.
