Monday has dawned warm and windy. Chris Bedford's morning show slide is below, and though it may be north of 20 in puffs, it should be within the wind "guidelines" the teams have agreed with the Race Committee of 7-23 knots (average). Only caveat is that it has been breezy all night, and it could also be a bit rough.

The race committee is more likely not to start a race if it is 23ish and very rough as opposed to flat like it was (or at least was when we started) the other day when all the breakage (to other teams) occurred. However, once a race starts, it would only be called off for a threat to life or limb, such as a serious lightning storm, a tornado or container ship encroaching on the course.


And they were worried about it being too light here. Other than
yesterday it has been "breeze on" the entire regatta.
