I've got great sailors with me this year and they really know how to handle the boat. Our team chemistry was tremendous. Everyone checked their egos at the door, and that's probably why this boat sailed better than ever before.

I've never had the type of boat speed I had this week. The boat was set up very well and Brian kept us in the right spot on the course. We just had that little notch of speed, that tiny fraction of height, that enabled us to get out of tough spots.
