P0,P1 and P2 had a huge hole of no wind develop on the way downwind. Results may be changing after that race. Looked like the rest of the fleet did ok going to the X mark with wind.

We had the first two days in Penn Cove and yesterday in Saratoga Passage. Winds yesterday looked like they might die off but held nicely. Yesterdays course had a longer weather legs and seemed to help boats like White Cloud in P0 get off and going. Today is looking like we are going to need the warming of the land to generate the wind. Luckily the sun is shining right now and within a couple hours we should see that. We have a minus tide today and may delay the fleet a half hour or so just to get out of the marina safely.
