Racing continued today in ideal conditions - 10-12 knots of steady breeze from 135 in a slight chop. The RC posted downwind finishes in the fresher breeze and scored four races before sending the tired fleet ashore.
Drama for the day - in the third race, Shaw/Scanlon tear the 'chute on the set when the halyard gets behind the main. The team takes a DNF and headed for the beach to grab a new spinnaker and returned to the race course. They make it to the RC boat just in time for the next warning, but run over the spin sheets in a hurried douse. Scanlon goes forward to sort out the lines, loses balance in the chop and falls off the bow, breaking the spin pole... DNS for the fourth and final race. Extremely dissapointing day for the team from Texas.
The leaders swap places - Mason/Segerblum look stong in the breeze and post a 2-1-1 for the last three races to pull one point ahead of Miller/Reiss (1-2-2) going into the final day.
Forecast for tomorrow is a bit muddled - we'll see how it all plays out.
