Europeans, 1 day to go

Hey !

In the qualifying series, i had very good races, some bad ones included a 2nd BFD .. which sucks, because if we dont race tomorrow (last day, we can reach 10 races), it means there is only 1 discard, and that doesnt help me, i need 2 discards !!
Yesterday, we stayed onshore for the whole day, there was no wind on the course area and a lot of current too. In the evening, we took the rubber boat to go to Copenhagen for dinner. That was nice to go there by the sea, and mooring the boat right in the middle of the town !
 
Today was the 1st day of final. We started with a race which was abandonned 1h30min after the start. We were actually still sailing on the 2nd beat when they cancelled. It was light wind and a LOT of current, something amazing. So we struggled to move forward ! I was deep in the back of the fleet, eventhough i caught up many places on that 2nd beat (maybe around 25). Then the commiittee sent us close to the shore to race in less current. We had 2 races and the wind increased a bit, so it helped to sail against the current. In the 1st race i got stuck on the left side and ended up really bad at the 1st top mark, then caught up to the finish to end 27th. In the 2nd race, i managed to take a start where i could tack to the right side, and things went easier. I was around 10 at the 1st top mark, and caught up more boats on the downwind and the beat to finish 6th. So its an average day today, i am a bit angry with my 1st race because i knew what i was doing was not good !!!

Tomorrow is the last day of the championship. I will give my best for the last 2 races. Gold fleet final counts double point, everything goes fast and if you make a small mistake you can get a lot of points very quickly !
Wish me luck,
Sophie
