Mike Sanderson Quotes
If it's less than eight knots, we are going to struggle mightily. If it's 8-11, it will be an even race. If it gets over 13, that is when we kick into another gear. We knew this bay would be one of the scariest places to sail because it has a history of being light.

It looks like all our hard work and our new approach has paid off.

Certainly we've had some stints where we averaged over 25 knots for an hour, and then you're up to the 600-mile day scenario. A lot of the guys here were the first to do 500 miles, and it would be nice to get the 600 but as always we're here to win points. We keep reminding ourselves that we don't need to win this leg where perhaps other boats do, and so we mustn't allow ourselves to be pressured into pushing the boat too hard.
