We made it to Jupiter!

Sorry for the premature post earlier.... the wind actually filled about 30 minutes before the start.  We started off going around 7-8mph with the spinnaker up, gybing back and forth.  Soon we were single trapezed and later double trapezed.  While we were double trapezed we were reaching speeds of 15-19mph.  The wind eventually clocked around enough that we were single trapezing at 20+mph (top speed 22.5) pretty much straight down the shore!  This continued until the finish.  It is really cool out there with 24 boats, we were able to see 15 others boats or so all the time.  It makes it really tough when you need to eat, drink, or do anything other than sail fast because you are constantly try to pass someone else and fend off those trying to pass you.  We were the 13th boat to the beach, this was partially because of a couple boats breaking down, but that's all part of the Tybee!  Hopefully our hard work to get the boat prepped for this race keeps paying off!

We were also interviewed by Sailing Anarchy today after getting off the water. I'd guess it'd be on their On The Water Tybee coverage later on... check it out... SailingAnarchy.com
