Nathan's quick summary.
(note: it was the first time that we used the 3DL #3, Elise's racing jib. We also tuned the rig differently - even though I didn't do much so I should probably say that the racing crew did - I think that before, the mast was leaning pretty far forward. This was good for the Delta Ditch Run as it is mostly downwind, but may have reduced our upwind performance)
1 broken mast
1 broken boom
1 broken spin pole
2 boats with multiple people overboard (bad wipeouts)
The race committee canceled the second race because the weather was too rough.
but Elise handled everything beautifully- great upwind speed. Very nice jib.
