One more practice day before ISAF World Cup Hyeres starts

We have been doing short practice races for the past couple days. Tomorrow is our break day, and one more practice on Sunday before racing starts. They call this place "8 or 80" since it is either light or full-on. "3 or 30" accurately describes what we have seen so far - some days we have seen 3 knots of wind, some days 30 kts.

Our biggest goal for this event is to improve our starts. The dynamics are similar to Lasers, although defending your space is harder, as is all maneuvering.

Check back to see how the racing goes!
