3 bridge fiasco, Raccoon Strait

Really wasn't very fast...but I could fly the spinnaker a little bit...

The flood started and carried Elise through Raccoon Strait, past Tiburon

A common sight during the race: droopy spinnakers

It was so light that I didn't bother with the autopilot for the gybes. I just prepped the lines, started the gybe with the tiller, walked forward and by the time I had gybed the pole and was back at the tiller, the main had gybed and the boat was ready to sail on the other side.

More 'retirees'

Downwind, it was a lot warmer...
