Cape Arrow left Yacht Club Costa Smeralda dock at 10.30 this morning, and just outside the port we found a flat sea, no wind and a cloudy sky which was threaten rain ... We waited instructions from the Jury and we were afraid the race wouldn't have started, since the conditions were so miserable.Around 11.30 the race jury decided to postpone the departure of half an hour with a shorter race course, division A and B together, since there were just 10 kts. We finally started the race and we made a very good departure with the gennaker on and we were about to pass Salperton, when the jury announced that the race was cancelled! We were all very disappointed, especially since we sail very few today.
Anyway, the good point about today is that we kept our position, which means that ...CAPE ARROW IS THIRD OVERALL!! We are all very happy: Cape Arrow showed once again to be a great yacht, comfortable and also able to race....and win!
See you soon for new adventures!
