Nationals Day 3 Race 2

Nathan still driving and Nat doing foredeck. Wind picked up a bit and we switched to the 3 but some boats in the race kept their genoa up. It really was borderline.

Really fast upwind speed but really slow downwind and any progress or boats we would pick on the upwind we would lose on the downwind.

We think it could be because of a bad forestay tension (still for light air) - which would also explain why we had to crank the halyard hard to keep the luff of the jib tight.
