We have been practicing racing around the buoys in Boston harbor during the Constitution Yacht Club Wednesday evening races. Tonight we set off for a 52nm race around Martha's Vineyard that will be held on Saturday July 25th 2015. We depart Boston at 8pm 7/23/15 (Thursday), for an overnight sail from Boston to Martha's Vineyard with an expected arrival time of 1pm Friday.
The race is out of Edgartown Yacht Club and can be followed in realtime from this site.
Will periodically send updates during the journey and race - winch grinding permitting.
I am looking forward to this race since my long term goal is long distance racing - e.g Newport to Bermuda, so at least in this race we will graduate from 5nm around the buoys, to a 50nm around the island race. Next step to increase the distance another order of magnitude.
