Hamdi, Gene, Chris P and I. Blew pretty well. Foils were on 4.7-5.2 and plenty powered. Chris finned but not sure of the size. Outperformed expectations. Beautiful overcast but very clear skies.

Care to explain that?

Yeah - sorry to be confusing. Should have written the air was clear. It was overcast but the low sunlight would poke through and really illuminate things - almost gave a purplish tint. However, the air seemed very dry and the mountains to the north were crystal clear (the "clear" part). Almost like Mediterranean "light" that people talk about - the low humidity makes for lower light diffraction so details and shadows are very crisp even things far away. There's still green on the shore plus the white caps - it all made for a colorful palette that we see less often.

Harness? Biggrin Well, that and chasing the endorphin dragon. I was feeling a bit flushed this morning, though, after the third day.

Too bad we didn't do a long distance encore race Sunday but that may have been a blessing in disguise as getting everything packed up and put away took up the afternoon.
