Team Seacats

We’re getting our minds right this morning – The Sirius satellite radio is locked into the Octane channel and the Cerwin Vegas are chuffing. Coffee’s made and the Lucky Charms are clinking into the bowls. Team Seacats is getting pumped. We’re not sure what the week has in store for us in the standings but we’re trying to not get overly concerned with that. We’re going to do the best that we know and try to avoid any catastrophies on the race course. There sure is a ton of talent out here. We are re-evaluating our starting tactics to go back to what we were doing last year (we seem to have been really crowding the start line too closely lately). The fact that we’re racing on a lake with what should be a little shifty and puffy nods at us a little because we mostly sail on lakes – but on the other hand, we’ve really been struggling lately in light air racing. We’re going to launch early this morning to study they lay of the lake since the wind is blowing out of the NNW and is nearly opposite of the the SSW we’ve been seeing all weekend. Racing today will take an hour or so break for us to come back to the beach for lunch and I expect they’re going to give us a long day if possible.
