[Rhodes22-list] Racing

[SwampFox]

Well, after putting the motor in the v-berth, raising the genny as high as
possible, tightening the luff tensioners on the sails and using the boom
topping lift as a whisker pole topping lift we managed a respectable 2nd
place finish in our class. If the bottom were smooth instead of having
rolled on paint and 3 weeks growth, we would have won for sure. 

We got some funny looks at first, being the smallest boat with blown out
sails, but take a look at the results in the link below. The boat did way
better than anyone thought. (PHRF Non Spin B)

You can see us a few times around the halfway point in this drone video of
the race. We look so small compared to the other boats, but you'll see
they're behind us.
