So hard and disappointing day! Three bad races 19-22-36, putting us at 15th place overall. Last day of racing tomorrow, we are trying to reset and finish strong:)

21/08/2014

What a day!!! First race we struggled, but were saved by a big windshift in the last upwind to finish 13. The second race we came back much stronger, so it was so disappointing when our shrouds broke and we had to stop racing not to break the mast . We went ashore to fix it, and we made it back just in time to start the last race. We were still full of adrenalin and frustration on our way out to the racecourse, but managed to get all our focus back to the racing. This race ended up to be the best race for us both ever!!! With a 1st place in a European Championship!!!:)

Only one race today due to really heavy winds! We finished 8th and are really happy with that! Almost half the fleet did not finish because of the heavy conditions. Former World Champion Alexandre Tinoco with his crew Bernardo Low-Beer won the race. We where fighting all the way to the finishline with the reigning European Champions Raul De Valenzuela Santaella and Antolin Alejandre De Ona.
