It's all over! The final race was really pretty stressful, such light wind but we managed to make a lot of good decisions which gave us a 12th place.
So, we've finished 13th overall, learnt a lot about light wind sailing in shifty conditions - that doesn't mean that we can do it, but we know more than we did!
Video of the final race just uploading now.

Thanks again for your support and for your kind words and advice!

Cheers

Joe + Jon

No racing on Day 2. A big raincloud was hanging over us for most part of the day which made the race commitee postpone the racing in fear of thunder. The clouds eventually eased and we went out. We were about 1min from starting a race when a massive windshift hit and the race was cancelled. Shortly after the wind completely died and the day was abandon.

They are planing for 3 races tomorrow so hopefully the wind comes back. Sorry for the absent of a live update but there just wasn't so much to share. We hope that we have found a couple of tweaks that could help us be faster.

Bring on tomorrow!
