The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

OK. Time to get serious in analyzing what went well, and what didn't at the Masters Worlds in Spain... and what I need to do about it. It's all been buzzing around in my head the last three weeks and I think I've got it straight now.

So I plan a series of posts over the next week or so talking about how I think I did in various aspects of the racing, and then speculating on what I can do to improve in each area. At the moment I think the topics will be...

• Starting and Strategy -- not always spoke of in the same breath but they are related.
  
  
• Boat Speed
  
  
• Mark Roundings
  
  
• One Particular Weakness
  
  
• Finishes
  
  
• Fitness

I hope you will join in and tell me what you think of my various errors, weaknesses and screw-ups, and more importantly how to correct them.
