National Day 3 race 3

Nat back to driving and Nathan back to foredeck (Nat was getting tired and needed food, the last douse was very lousy although the hoists were faster)

Very nice early hoist at the windward mark - right at the mark and even before the offset. We were constantly late hoisting which definitely cost us the seconds that we lost to the leaders.

A little tough to get back in the groove because there were no two other 'warm up races' so in hindsight this may not have been a great move - at the windward mark alongside Magic Bus but a little slow hoisting. Still good general upwind speed although pointing wasn't as good initially - main needed some adjustment to get back into the groove.
