While the seas were too stormy for some to navigate to Pirates Destiny, Thomas, Stacy and Rain squared off for the FFA Battle race.
Thomas had to retire from the race before the start due to the weather but Stacy and Rain started cleanly and avoided the squalls and were off to battle race. Stacy took the lead rounding the first mark in Tortuga and sailed south after the Martinque buoys and Rain tacked east. They came together in Monserrat with Rain in a slight lead and Stacy sailing fast on her stern, hitting Rain several times and splashing her ship with sea spray all around as Rain charged hard forward, returning fire with her stern gun. With squares set, they rounded the final marks in light wind and made for the finish. Race Results Round 1: Rain - 1st Place -- 8:32 minutes Stacy - 2nd Place -- 9:16 minutes -- 2 points Race Results Round 2: Rain - 1st Place -- 8:32 minutes Stacy - 2nd Place -- 8:52 minutes -- 2 points Stacy acquires 4 points in the standings... congratulations!
