Pensacola Bay delivers once again! Race day 2 brought sunny skies, good breeze and flat water; perfect conditions for our GL52s to complete three incredible races!
Once again, wizard cannot be beaten and has a perfect score line with 6 first-place finishes. Katana and Windquest continue to hunt for second place, currently with 14 and 16 points respectively.
Aside from great racing, we had the honor of hosting one of our community partners the PYC Satori Foundation and thirty 8th grade students from the Ddixon School Pensacola. They learned about MarkSetBot and our on the water technology, how we use drones and an inside look at our racing boats. We even put them to work to grind a bowman up the rig!
Tomorrow looks to be more of the same, and we can't wait!
Conditions for Day 2 look like they will be remarkably similar to yesterday, so teams that can stay calm, avoid getting frustrated and stay on top of shifts are likely to find themselves on the top of the podium. Check out or socials for more updates!
