Now everything is fixed and may try it again next summer, but I allocated only six days for the whole thing. (We sailed in shifts). Here's a couple pics and clips of the trip.

Moe, we'd be delighted to have you join us for the trip.

We can work some PHRFing into this in a very subtle sort of way. You can get up at 6 and start and I'll roll out of the bunk at 730 or so....!
40 knots on the stern indeed... (note to self need to get the chute)
Tell you what. If you get tired, we can always pull your boat along as a dinghy behind mine
I have a friend with a chute from a flying scott you could cut your teeth on. Don't want to "over power" your cruiser. :P
And I saw those "trophies" you posted in another thread. I've set off mortars on the 4th of July that were double the size of those paper weights.

Disclaimer: I used to drag race/ street race for the better part of a decade, so trash talking is as important as the actual race.

Back on topic. We need to look at tides, prevailing winds, ports of interest, and try to get a head count of who's a definite. I'll come up with a list tomorrow when I should be working.
