The boys spent the first afternoon setting up their boats and rigging their sails so that they were all set for today. We have 2 Far East boats with Black Gold spars and 2 Lange boats with MKIII spars. The boys are happy with the boats.
There are other teams here already – CHI, ISV, PER, ECU, ARG
They had a quiet first night, walking around town – not much to see – and then dinner at a local restaurant. The boys tried empanadas.
This morning they did some fitness and then breakfast at the hotel. It was cold this morning, clear skies and about 50 degrees. Skies are still clear but it is warmer
The weather here will be challenging. There is very little wind in the mornings which increases as the day goes on. It is currently about 1-2 knots with strong waves and so they are waiting for it to increase so that they can go out. They will likely go out late and stay out late. We have 12 hours of daylight 7.30am to 7.30pm. They should have an interesting afternoon with the waves.
