Pac Rim Day 2. Slalom is on

4 races in and it was on to the slalom. In a light and shifty 10 knots, the 11 competitors went head to head in 2 heats. Format was top 2 went through to final. Then we had a losers heat, where top place also went through. The repercharge was on! Adam and Junior qualify, and Boras in the repecharge! Our heat was closely fought, at as to first mark, with Charlie and Zack going through. Bora makes it in at last moment. and the winner of the pitcher of Mai Tais is........
Charlie. Awesome and using my new cut down main foil. Clearly more development to come in that direction.

We had Liz working the camera shutter and there are just some awesome shots of this beautiful place to sail. It looks like the club will potentially make a bid for the 2013 Worlds. It would be a great destination location for the event. We also have a strong bid from ABYC in Long Beach. To make our decision I think we will make a vote after this event, and then again after the Long Beach event in early June. This will then allow enough time to pull a proposal together for ratification at Euros in Travemunde.

Looking a little light today, so who knows but were 11 races in already.
