Mike was hoping for either an error in boat handling or some leverage...

Of course, looking at the forecast on the windalert site, looks to be going left all day. So much for local knowledge... Mike

BTW, anyone know about the redress for Korte in races 1 and 2? Or, about the other boats listed as "Protest" (are they still pending)? Mike
