On day 1 (Friday) the wind was going right all day, you'll recall the RC reset the course after we could one-tack A mark on Stbd. When the wind is going right, you want to get right asap and ride the lift into A mark.
On day 2 it was still going right, just not nearly as much, and occilating more, but you had to decide if you were going to go right early to avoid the F18 spinnaker parade (and resultant bad air) or if you were going to hit the left corner to avoid same.
On day 3 it was light and fluky, you really had to watch out for the holes going upwind, and try to stay in the puffs downwind, hope for the best on the gate laylines.
