The team arrived safely after long delays in Miami. First with a maintenance issue, then an electrical storm and finally sitting on the plane on the runway for almost two hours while beverages were delivered!
We were met inside the airport by a regatta rep who collected our passports and forms and whisked us right through effortlessly. A very quick van ride and we were here. It is the same place the team stayed in 2009 just under a different name.
We got settled easily with Makai, Antonio and Chase in one room and Peter and Rory in another. Plenty of space for all. Had dinner, which although filled with variety was by no means fantastic but more than adequate.
Plenty of teams here already, ARG, BRA, PER, CHI, SWE, SUI, NED and NZL. Monday will be boat prep and a trip to the supermarket. Then lunch at the Club and a long afternoon sail.
