Day 2 - Race 1

The halyard was fixed, the team spirit was high and ready to go. Wind was light and all of us had to be towed out again. By 1pm, the Race Officer, John Feguson was ready and sounded the horn for the start of the race. We were the 2nd boat across the start line behind the Malaysian team. Managed to cross their bow and crossed the windward mark first but lost again as they had a better spoin hoist at the mark. us pulled ahead and extended the lead from the rests of the pack.



Heng Li, the skipper of the Malaysian team and crew were gunning to be selected for the December SEA Games. We matched them equally and wasn't able to catch up with them. Lost out by 6 secs to the finishing line.


This race we scored 2nd place....yahoo!!!!
