Fiesta Cup update

We are in fourth, but only three points out of first. Yesterday was a beautiful day on the water. The fog cleared leaving aquamarine water, sunny skies, and building breeze. Crew worked well together and we had a lot of fun. Finished 5, 1, 4. Here are some photos from our second race as we head into the finish.

Dirk with all the competition behind him!

Nice when there are no boats between you and the finish line!

And here's Lucas hanging with the Dark Star crew. They said he was a great addition, though I think his parents were conflicted about rooting for their son versus the Santa Barbara boats!

Fiesta Cup practice 7/20/12

Skian Dhu got some new 3Di sails and we took her out yesterday to check them out. It was a beautiful Santa Barbara day; maybe a little too windy for the new light. Hoping the breeze stays for racing today.

Go Skian Dhu!

Yachting Cup 2012

Skian Dhu looks great! We had a fun weekend in San Diego getting back into the Skian Dhu groove. Light conditions both Saturday and Sunday, but still a good time. We ended up third for the regatta.
Results here.

Looking beautiful!

In the Yard

Skian Dhu is having a little work done. She doesn't quite look the same!
