This morning it was blowing 25, and they didn't know whether they were going back out after lunch. But they did, and it was blowing 28 and gusting to 37.
What else but Waves would be out in that?
I don't know much else except that Rick was dismasted this afternoon when his forestay broke. Everyone seems to be in good spirits and having a great time.
The Ohio contingent chipped in to rent a big house to stay in a mile from the regatta site.

I'll wait for Jon to post more up-to-date info. | | |
