Henry (3125) is well
placed here as both Dave (4782) and Geoff (blue &
white spi) will have to give him room at the leeward mark unless they can pull ahead. ... |

Michael and Kate (high
spi) are
about to gybe for the leeward mark - this fly-away spi
doesn't happen
if you use the "balls system" (properly. Dave Hansman
looks like he'll
beat everyone in this pic to the mark - except
Fred (l) who
is about to round the
leeward mark, having lost at least ... - click here

Uncle Al
actually hiking and making sure he will observe any tack
by Dwight. ... |

Fred has tacked away and
Marc
(3854) is thinking about it - perhaps another half a minute or so to see if the Lord won't give us a lift that would get us out of Dwight's backwind? ... |

Sue Pilling and Steph
Romaniuk
have Mystic
moving right
along as they pass the RC boat half way up the second
beat. ... |

On the right side lay line,

Dave and Kim stay near the
middle as they cross behind Fred (l)
and Ross. More vang and/or mainsheet tension would give

The second run: Dwight has,
if
anything, increased his lead of 2nd-place Marc who is,
however, still
"defending" the left side of the run - using the SHADES "default strategy" for a buoys-to-port run, when no good reason to do anything else is apparent. ... |

Tony and Mary, despite
lack of
spinnaker, are strategically well placed in this
hull-speed weather -
inside for the mark and on starboard tack
converging with the
outside boats. Dave (282) has made some inroads after
his slow start
and may be poised to pass Sue and/or Fred (l) before the
leeward mark?
