Mike Tierney/Rich Brew/Skip Canfield won the race on their RC-27. I believe, but cannot confirm that only two other boats officially finished. Those boats were a Supercat 20 (Loyd Berry?) and a Marstrom A Class with spinnaker (Brent?). Bill Roberts was next at 8:15 pm but was not scored because he missed the 6:30 pm cutoff at the Shands Bridge in Green Cove Springs. We were about 30 seconds to a minute behind Bill but elected to not round the turning mark and sail through the finish in order to get in before sunset. There were maybe a dozen boats that made the 6:30 Green Cove cutoff but did not make the 8:15 finish cutoff. There were only two boats (that I could tell) that did not make the 6:30 cutoff but could have or did finish by 8:15.

I have seen less wind and hotter temperatures during past Mug Races, but have never seen the wind stay so light for so long. The wind never peaked above 5 kts until around 6:30 pm. Most of the time it was just strong enough to make the slightest ripple at the bow and provide a slight indication of movement. The wind that we did have varied from NNW to S.
