Starting out the 2023 season with SMSA Frostbites. Did most of the series on Neptune's Wager to train their crew and help get the program started. With the exception of the first race we had mostly heavy conditions out of the river as is typical for this time of year. By pushing the boat hard we broke some marginal parts and revealed several hardware shortcomings to be addressed before the next series, culminating in us having to sit out the last race due to rigging issues. I raced the last race on Elysium, another friend's J/33, and we put up a respectable showing despite needing much more crew weight for the fresh conditions. Looking forward to warmer weather and Wednesdays starting up in a couple weeks.
