Thanks, Tom. I'll put your time in the official results just for the record, but you're right it doesn't make any difference..... At least you'll get a first place award at the banquet for the race.

Hank, Spirit crossed the line at 21:57:44.
Not that it matters since we came in first, second, third and last in NC class.
Sorry I am so late with the data, i thought I had sent it Sunday.

That is correct. You two non-spins are in different classes. It's just for completeness that I'd like the time. No need to dig it up from your GPS.
Cheers,
Hank

Hank, Oh. I could look on my GPS but I am not sure it merits if you want to post tentative. There were no other boats in our class right?

Kudos to all who finished. Second Wind could never have beaten the TLE.

Spirit crossed as we were close to G1. I confirmed their crossing on the radio. I never saw their lights though.
We hailed them after we cross at 10:22 as we got finished cheering.

Did anyone get Spirit's finish time? Did they finish?

Doug,
Did you subtract your down time from the elapsed time you reported? If not, can you let me know how much time you lost letting the tanker go by? You get redress for that.
Cheers, Hank

Steve, that was a smart call. If you got caught in the doldrums like we did with a tanker bearing down it could have been really nasty.

Joe,
No worries. It was a nice afternoon and evening. Spirit called for encouragement and I told them the wind would pickup after sunset and it did. The speed really ramped up for us with 4.5nm to go and held to G1. After we got passed G1 the wind was a bit squirrelly and started to ease off, but held to allow us to cross the line.
We braved humidity, tankers, flies and realized a nice fresh breeze at the end. It was worth it all to have 90 minutes of fresh breeze sailing.
Red Sky at night, sailors delight!
Cheers,
Doug

Way to go, Red Sky. Perseverance prevails! Sorry we did not stay on station to give you the cannon.

Red Sky crosses in
5hrs 12 min 8 sec! Just as the wind started to go flat again!
At 8:05 pm we had to start the motor to evade a tanker bearing down on us. We started backing up to 82 but the tanker turned to the mark so we turned off the motor to not move back in their way. We were 4.81 nm from G1 when we turned on the motor and 4.94 away when we stopped. So advantage was made under motor.

No engine on a distance race and possibilities of T-Storm cells hitting is too much of a risk for my crew. Endeavor will not compete for the Sharps Island race. See y'all Weds!

We are not going out today.
Thanks, Joe, for doing RC on a soggy day.
Good luck and sail fast.

Wise counsel from Jubilee. There is a six hour time limit for the first boat in a class to finish with another 90 minutes for all other boats in the class. The race committee intends to hold out for as long as possible but no guarantees we will be there if it takes six hours or longer to cross the finish line. I have asked the chaplain aboard Second Wind to pray for wind. —Joe
