Only one way to describe today's race and that was shocking. 0-5knots and shifty. Could only get 30th but some other top sailors had a bad race too so still in 3rd going in to the medal race. I can't catch 2nd and I am 13 points in front of fourth. Looking to just finish the regatta off strong and consolidate the 3rd.

Today just didn't seem to be my day. Couldn't get my head around the shifts. Although I did fight back in both races which could have been shockers. Scoring a 12th and a 16th. Not great and slipped down to 3rd overall. Still close at the top with 2 races to go before the medal race.

Extremely shifty day 3. First day of gold and had a bit of a shock. Could only manage 20th in the first race but finished the day with a solid 4th. This has moved me in the lead by a point.

Arrived in Miami last night and went for my first sail today. First trip to Miami so spent the day getting used to the conditions. Looking forward to the first international regatta for the year.

Another 25 knot day in Mandurah for the Nationals. Managed to find an extra gear upwind to get two wins today. With two drops out of 12 races means that I can't get better than second and can't get worse than second going in to tomorrow. Congratulations to Tom Burton for the win. Enjoyed the extremely close racing throughout the week. Will head out tomorrow keen to finish off with two more firsts

First day of racing for 2015 today. Another two extremely close races in 20 knots. 2 more seconds for me but made some progress with my downwinds so not everything is bad.
