Cars almost all way back F3-4 When a turning don’t back Jib, will lose speed On long downwind race 2 the NJ side out of the current, should have reattached to the fleet earlier and control angle towards pin. Upwind when boat felt dead, ease out jib and inch to repower. Tacking in zone at finish lose rights. On this race the answer was not to foul the winch and lose 2 boat lengths Third race. In today as wind, for pointing high Don’t overtrim the traveler; middle traveller with right main and vang to flatten forward third, heel increased a bit > traveler up l. In light wind you want the boom to be able to rise and so traveler up. Remember to trim the outhaul on upwind. Remember that you can force port to duck! Plan ahead! Be sure to communicate plan so tacks don’t come quickly. ESP when up for weight. Tack tack tack vs. we might tack
