VOLVO PRO AM RACE

Yolo Skipper was fortunate to have received an invite from Xtra-Link and Cobham to sail aboard on the Pro-Am Race scheduled for Friday the 14th November.
Weather was cloudy, with winds blowing in the late 20's.. touching 30 at times. The sea was bumpy as the sea built up in the NW breeze.
The bridge decided no racing, but the Boats went sailing anyway.
Boat speeds were maintained easily between 17-22knots.. just beam reaching across the bay.. with one reef and a J2 set.
Sailing was wet with the boat punching through the chop.. with the additional water from the bow spray.
