Nauti Chicas Rock!

The Nauti Chicas tied for first place in the recent Linda Elias Women's One Design regatta in Long Beach!!!

We logged a 2-2-2 in Day One; Day Two was a blow-out (literally: winds gusting into the 40s) ... Damned if we didn't end up in 2nd overall though after CYC (4-1-1) won the tie breaker.

However our real coup was that two of those 2nd place finishes came after we were OCS (
nauti chicas!) and clawed our way back up the fleet!!! 'Including one race where we were chewing up their fibergl-asses all the way to the finish line and nearly overtook them in the final seconds. We wish we'd had racing weather on Sunday: we were ON!

It's a great start to our SD-PV / Transpac '09 Campaign!! ~ B
