The Detroit Match Race cup is set on a river with 2 knots of current and Canada in the background. The start of today was delayed with lack of breeze but it filled in and 12 flights later it was 6pm.
Tackling the strong current we had a good day, winning 6 races and losing 1. Our loss came against Taylor Canfield of the American Virgin Islands when he infringed in the pre start and won the pin. We sailed a brilliant race to stay so close to him but not quite enough as he got his penalty in by an inch on the finish line.
We're looking forward to tomorrow and ready for another big day!
