We have gained a solid lead in the last race and enjoyed the view of the fleet going back into channel from our position.

Inside of the channel on the last leg to finish line. We had a solid 4 minute lead over 2nd boat and focused on maintaining and increasing that gap.

We had a solid lead over the rest of the fleet and it was a time to let crew take it easy, while maintaining the lead. We kept an eye on nearest boat behind us and we were timing them as they passed channel markers to make sure we maintain our 4 minute lead.
