than Day Sailers, and of course, much faster. I like the Day Sailer better, though. I guess I'm used to them, but if I had to change, the Thistle would be a likely choice.
We had decent starts except for the third race where I messed up by not pushing the boat to windward up harder. I have to be more aggressive sometimes... There were three of us, Mattia and Tom both much, much better sailors than I, kicked my butt.
