Back To Racing

by Joy on Sep.29, 2012, under 1 : USA Sailing Series, 4 : World Championship

It’s the final day of Worlds and the stakes are high. Samba leads strong, hedgehog is within striking distance… We’ll see how it all plays out with only one race left.

Overcast skies prevail, cool temps, looking for some nice breeze…
