Whitby 50

On June 25, 2014, Dave Thompson and I entered the Whitby 50 open race. Forecasts had the winds very light, from the South, then shifting to the North around midnight. Winds remained very light from the South until about 1/2 mile from the Ajax weather buoy where they quickly shifted North and built to a steady 6 knots. Heading back to the finish line, winds were shifty during the first 2 tacks and resulted in us tacking on the knocks and getting a significant lift.

Ended up in 3rd place overall. Happy with the result!
