Anacapa Island Race

Friday, I got a last-minute call at noon to see if I wanted to sail the Anacapa Island race aka Tri-Point Ocean Race. I was lucky to get on a fast boat with a good crew. Even though my job was to be rail meat, it was very cathartic after the week I had. We had fair wind for most of the race except for the round of the island. The lee of the Island was shifty and dead for the most part. It felt like it took just as much time to round the island as it did to make the channel crossing. All and all, it definitely was a good day.
