Rolex Miami OCR - Quiet day one

by Campbell Sailing on 25 Jan 2011 Rolex Miami OCR report from Andrew Campbell.

'We had 12-15 knots of easterly breeze today in Miami. Steady and choppy conditions allowed two good races to go off for the Star fleet on time at 1100. We had 2.0 mile first beats and races took the better part of an hour and half each, at which point we blast reached back to the Grove by 3pm.

'Ian and I had a couple of chances to break into the top ten but had minor setbacks in a couple places putting us in an average couple of finishes 17, 14. We sit 16th overall, but very close to a bunch of boats and have to rely on our consistency to dig us out of the spot we’re in. The forecast is for 5+ more knots of breeze tomorrow. Things could get interesting. Stay Results
