Cabrillo Beach YC Holiday Regatta

Last weekend I sailed in the Holiday Regatta at Cabrillo Beach Yacht Club. I came in fifth out of 21 boats in the Championship Fleet and was one of only two boats with no double-digit finishes. I was tied for fourth on points, but lost on the tiebreaker. Click here for results.

It was really light and shifty both days. It was particularly shifty on Sunday. My friend Miguel was leading the regatta after Saturday, but had a tough day on Sunday and finished third overall. Here's a short video of us sailing downwind. It's shaky (thanks dad), but you'll get the idea:

Santa Barbara had six sailors at the regatta. We have our own Opti team!

I enjoyed traveling with my friends from Santa Barbara and hanging out with my friends from other Clubs. I wish it would have been warmer--I wanted to go in the hot tub at the hotel.
