Pre North Americans

Jen here,

We received our new sails today and had a great sail with Geoff and Tyler.  It was touch and go as to whether or not the sails would be delivered in time, and so we breathed a sigh of relief when we arrived at the sailing centre to find a big box from North with "attn: Jen Braem" written on the side of it. 

Out on the water we tuned up with the boys and noticed a major improvement in our pointing over yesterday.  This is in part some modification in our rig setup, but mostly help from the new sails which set up beautifully.  They're a different cut than our old sails, and this will take a it of getting used to, but it will be a definite improvement over our trainers.  Tomorrow is day 1 of the North Americans, so we'll have more for you soon!

Cheers,
Jen
