Sorry for the delay in posting. Travel.
The last day of racing in Sydney was almost as windy as the day before, with 25kts gusting to 27. We were one of about 6 teams that chose not to sail. There was a very high risk of breaking stuff and injuring ourselves, so we opted out. Honestly it is very depressing to not sail two days in a row when there is an awesome breeze. I would never bail out on Lasers on a 25 kt day. I think I am still in a bad mood from it. The teams that did sail had an exciting day. Check it out at http://www.18footerstv.com.
I am finally in Miami getting ready for a serious 49er training session, and the sailing is getting delayed again. We are supposed to sail tomorrow, but we are going through some drama trying to get a hold of our mast bottom section which accidentally hitched a ride to Brazil. If all goes well, we will get a new one tomorrow night and be ready to sail the next day. Starting to go stir crazy.
