Lighter winds for today (around 15 now, straight down the beach) with even less forecast for the finish (10-12). This 96 mile run will make for a longer day than the fleet is used to, but spinnaker work all the way. Hope they watch out for the Mayport Jetty, which extends two miles out to sea from the mouth of the St. John's River.

Rick's posted a great pictorial this morning - be sure to check the news page ! For those of you that I advised to plan for a 3 PM arrival in Tybee to hang out with the ground crews - you may want to get there sooner!



No wonder Kirk can't concentrate - that's his ground crew!

Good luck Tybee Fleet! You're almost there!
