All the starts were 3 minutes apart, I20's first, then F18's then F16's. There were times when we were near some of each but I think only because they had flipped and recovered. It was very hard to keep track of who was where because one minute they were "right there" and the next minute, gone...swimming. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

Seth and Stephan (Taipan 4.9 F16) got a taste of the old Karma after they laughed at us as they passed us while we were recovering from one dump, Seth was yelling, "I've got you now you Mother F'rs..." or words to that effect as they screamed by. We were hot to catch them once we got going again, next thing I know, they are gone. On the next lap I see them tied to a crash boat, mast down. Karma's a Bitch! <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

We did pass one F18 and one I20 going upwind on one lap late in the day, can't tell you who, where, when or why.
