Despite the shame of my two black flags during the nationals, I'm thankful that I did at least avoid taking any lumps out of the committee boat.

For anyone who did hit the committee boat, you can take comfort that it happens to the professionals too:

Thankfully I didn't hit it that hard.

There's another view of the incident taken from the two boats leeward of the one that hit the committee boat.
