Conditions today were very trying on the Melges 24 course as we were racing in 5-10 knots with a lot of chop. Many times the crew was inside the boat while pounding through large swell.
Another light airs day at Yachting Key West Race Week saw Morgan Reeser consolidate his overall lead after the fifth Melges 24 race. The race was lead from the first mark by Tony Wattson, who made a brilliant first beat then successfully defended his position right round the course.

An overcast sky, showers and light, variable conditions couldnt dampen the enthusiasm of the Melges 24 Class at Yachting Key West Race Week today. Race one kicked off in around 14 knots north-east, but shortly after the start a shower front came through dropping the breeze back to under 10 knots.

The key to our day was that we got out there as soon as we could and sailed up wind a bit and got tuned up for the conditions. It was a light to medium breeze but relatively flat water so not too difficult to keep the boat moving.
