The first leg was 110 degrees with light air around 5 or 6 knots out of the northwest. The starts in front of us were starting on port with spinnakers. The boats farther in the lake were getting more air so they seemed to get a little more speed. I noticed about 7 minutes before our start some cat paws coming from the south shore. I could see there was a major shift coming (180 dgrees) and actually motored for 15 seconds before the 5 minute gun to get to the new 
air. We hung around the right pin before the gun and put up our spinnaker. Hot Ticket reached up to us and got across first with Merlin and Night Moves in a hole farther down the line. Up the first leg I could see the pressure was still on the right side of the course so I tried to bias the us there. It was enough to round mark A with us on the inside of Hot Ticket. They tacked immediately where we held out tack about a 100 yards since Merlin right behind stretched their tack out also(port tack was favored). Going farther up the leg we managed to hold our lead with Ticket and they crossed behind us on the next tack. At this point I only wanted to cover HT and stay to their right. Hot ticket had a battle with a fishing boat and went aground. After a number of tacks in lighter and lighter air Merlin managed to catch up four boat lengths behind us. At DP5 the wind shut down and essentially we drifted in ahead of them. We could still win the race even without wind. Go figure.
Result: 1st out of 4 J/120s
