The real point is the race had already started, AND THE KIWIS WERE 7 SECONDS AHEAD(!!!), and they cancelled Race 9 IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RACE!!!

This is such a lead, almost embarrassing. Still, race isn't over yet, so anything can happen.

Re: Twenty Knots

I would not be amiss if the boats actually used the whole damn bay and had tacking battles the whole way through, including a circumnavigation around angel island.
