Again an unconsistent 3-5 knots SE breeze, with strong tide.
As I mentioned the start was something more than disastrous. I nearly cried on the boat. We were last with distance. After that I did one of my best races ever:we gained 10 boats on the first beat(easy), then we've got a good opportunity from the right on the second beat, and we took it perfectly, passing many boats, and then again on the last run we used the last right shift to arrive 14th, getting really close to the front of the fleet.
On the second race we were sucked in dirty air at the gun and we started rebounding without clear lanes.That was terrible. We stayed all the race around the 20th position, and then lost some boats on the final run because I decided to gybe too early.
