ETRANGER WINS! First to Finish and First Corrected Overall

Tom Leweck and Johan Lodenius with their 1st Place Trophy
They won Class C in the new J 46 Linnray
| February 19 | Light to medium airs have secured Joss' 16 year old record.
Etranger the Jutson 50 has taken a big lead with just 410 miles to go. Locomotion the Andrews 45 follows 40 miles behind and Wasabi the Farr 46 and Falcon the Tripp 50 are 60 miles behind. The big boats that started a day later will not catch them this time unless they hit really light air at the cape. Click here for February 19th results. |
| February 20 | Roller Coaster is the big Winner of the Day moving into
1st overall. Locomotion and Etranger had the slowest day of A, B, or C class travelling only 158 miles each as they passed Cabo. Pegasus caught Class C that started 2 days ahead after a 263 mile day. Click here for February 20th results |
| February 21 | Etranger flies to the finish this afternoon with a 1st
in every catgory except elapsed time, which Pegasus who started a day after
them took today in just over 5 1/2 days. Roller Coaster dropped from 1st overall to last in class after posting a disapointing 144 mile day. Pendragon continues to lead Class AA corrected if they can finish within 19 hours of Pegasus. Click here for February 21st results |
| February 22 |
ETRANGER beat the fleet badly finishing the 1125 mile race in 6 days. Corrected time also went to Etranger 21/2 hours ahead of Kirk and Jocelyn Wilson's Baywolf who gained 21 miles on Octavia finishing only 31/2 mintes behind the other SCZ 50 that owed them almost an hour. Pendragon 4 should correct on Pegasus to win the AA Class after a 213 mile day. Grand Illusion will correct in 3rd followed by Mongoose. Class C went to the new J46 Linnray with Black Knight getting 2nd. |
