As an armchair sailor, I want to thank all those involved with this race. what a great event! I have been following it since Lee(Chums)started traveling from Cali to do it. That was back in the old "Hobie List" email days. Major kudos to Mr. Clean and JC for their coverage. I watched the awards this A.M., and found myself LOL and clapping at Chums first award. Yahoo! How cool is it that you have a 300 mile race, and boats finish seconds apart? It sure was exciting to watch! Way to go Great Texas 300!
