It s difficult to describe what it was like down at the course today. I think it s one of the best times of a regatta. The hard work has been done, so although everyone is focused, they are also happy to see each other again and socialize a bit. The excitement is contagious and the unknown of what might lie ahead, humbling.
We had good weather today with temps around 30 deg and a slight head wind. The word going around is that there's a cold front on it s way...
