Thanks for sharing. Conditions looked pretty light. Were you all on 9.0s? Any issues with staying flying?

They were all on 10's. Was only 7 to 8 knots by the last few races. They were all flying most of the time.

I see them out alongside RSX and RB, who was faster?
The Raceboards were faster than the RSX.

That moment when you hear that gurgle sound...
Great pics - looks significantly breezier. Any good stories? :)

The Raceboards were faster than the RSX.
And how did the foils place.

Raceboards/RS:X did 2 laps and Windfoils did 3 laps of windward/leeward course for races 2-7.
Results were recorded here:
results.rqys.com.au/SailBrisbane2019/series.htm
It appeared that the lead foiler finished about one lap ahead of raceboards, which roughly equates to the elapsed time difference quoted for race 1 in above post.
There also appeared to be a sizable gap between first foiler and other foilers (using same size sails and foils) in light wind, which may suggest racefoils are highly sensitive to rider weight and tuning in light winds.
