PV Race: Day Two

Report from J/65 "Brand New Day" during second day of San Diego to Puerto Vallarta race:

Feb 24, 1230: Let's start with dinner last evening (first night out). Sushi and sashimi appetizers, followed by freshly tossed salad, home made stew, and pecan pie for dessert, accompanied by a Syrah. We are now approaching Cedros Island at about 10 knots of speed with about 110 miles to go. Winds overnight ranged from 11 to 16 knots, freshening this morning to 15-17 knots. Biggest debate among the crew so far is who gets to push the button to trim the kite.

Update at 1707: First jibe of the race - from starboard board onto port. Crew was thrilled to have something to do! Now onto cocktail hour. - BND
