A few words

Looking back on the trip, I have to say that first and foremost I had a great time. Sailing against the world's best, experiencing the culture, and spending time with new and old friends made for a great trip. I enjoyed the dinners every night, the sailing parties, seeing the Kalmar castle, and finishing in 10th! We gained a great deal of experience and learned many new things from our time on the water, good coaching, and a discussion with former world champion John Ingalls. We did well, and are happy with our final position at 21st. We did well despite coming into the regatta sailing in difficult conditions. We learned from our first few races and improved as the races continued and finished strong. I already miss being in Sweden and look forward to a possible trip next year!
