Looks like good breeze for this years ASW...hopefully our top notch "Racer-Cruiser Tactician" will prevail.

Reports from El Ocaso (J120) to follow.

Brilliant conditions two days now. Yesterday MOB drama from the Tripp 56 'Passion 4 C' ended happily when Zig Zag picked them up - redress all round for the the three boats that broke off racing to help.

Today the racing classes were off to the west while the cruising group went east. El Ocasso still building a lead in the final regatta of their Caribbean season.

It's going to be hard work getting around Scarlet Oyster.

Conditions this morning are soft and Start Boat A classes are on their Ocean course today.

Start Boat B classes are on two shorter races today, and it's all to play for in most classes.

I sailed with the the El Ocaso team for a bit and this week we are having a hard time saving our time on them it will take a total breakdown from them (not likely) for us to move up from 2nd to 1st. Great sailing down here this week......I'm looking forward to tomorrows lay day festivitys!!!

El Ocaso is a VERY well sailed boat,Jaime Torres's passion for (everything), on the water is amazing and his enthusiasm is contagious. Go Smile and Wave! Can't wait for the new boat. Have fun you guys in Antigua-land, and if you have the chance to talk with Jaime you see a true Corinthian.

Really nice first 3 days for us on El Ocaso, pretty good conditions for the J120. Forecast is calling for lighter breeze on Thursday & Friday, I'm sure this will shake things up a bit and condense the fleet.

This is a great venue, RC is doing a really nice job and the courses have been pretty fun.

Lay day today..."are you for scuba"

Cheers-Bobby H.

Solid week for El Ocaso...Antigua Sailing Week was really well run and a must do Caribbean event. Now...back to the Great Lakes for the fresh water season.

El Ocaso had quite a Caribbean season. First in class and first overall at Heineken regatta. First in class BVI Spring Regatta. Finished off with 7 bullets out of seven races at Antigua Race Week. Congratulations "El O" on another fine season!
