Tuesday 7 8 25 morning call

Cash didn't do the practice race (I heard he's going to be winging in the upcoming official races), but he put up a show at Hookipa at sunset.



This is a clip from the race. Unfortunately, this time there was no boat, so we self started ourselves and the times were taken at the boat ramp.
