The boat is on it's way to Long Beach for the worlds where we plan to join it on on September 2nd. That will give us plenty of sailing time to warm up before the event starts on the 11th.

15: NE100
I crewed with Robert Todd last weekend on the Capricorn. We lost a port cover on Saturday and took on a bunch of water in a pitch-pole (see where the GPS track ends on Sat) but we did make it back to Quonset to finish. Sunday was a bit better, rounded Jamestown to port and Prudence to starboard. A fun time. I think we finished 6 or 7 overall. Got the crew card back and feeling good except that my hands were all cut up.

PS: Yes when you sail with a PHD you get GPS plots generated with MATLAB.
