Geneviéve and I made it back from our road trip to La Paz about 90 minutes into the awards presentation. Paul and Ray were there representing Sally and had already won the award for Best Spinnaker Disaster. Paul apparently told a heart-wrenching tale of woe to take that honor from Pipe Dream, who had destroyed a huge spinnaker during the heavy weather on the first leg. Having a crew member absent from the awards ceremony to shuttle a spinnaker to the sail loft must have won sympathy from the judges.
We also won first place in our division, which was a great way to wrap up the event. Jen, Julie, and Geneviéve were there, the sail repair was done, post-Ha-Ha crew Debbie had arrived, and there couldn't have been a better way to spend a last night in Cabo.
