For those of you with interest, I did some calculations for the fun of it just to see how performances among the top boats compared. The spinnaker boats sailed a total rhumbline distance of 28.5 miles, the non-spinnaker boats sailed a total rhumbline distance of 26.5 miles. If you divide the rhumbline distance by elapsed time, you can get an idea of VMG for the race:

Spinnaker Boats

Lambert - CFR20 10.72 mph
Smith - H20 9.66 mph
Wilson - H20 9.46 mph
Kelly - SC22 10.45 mph
Turlington - I17R 9.33 mph

Non-spinnaker boats

Hodges - A-Class 9.99 mph
Humphries - H-20 9.44 mph
Sneed - A-Class 9.45 mph

Only the spinnaker boats were eligible for the overall since they sailed the longer course. But since the difference was only 2 miles, I thought it would be interesting to use the VMG of the non-spinnaker boats and estimate their elapsed time and corrected time if they had sailed the longer course. This is what I got:

Hodges - A-Class 4:24:09 corrected
Humphries - H-20 4:38:41 corrected
Sneed - A-Class 4:39:15 corrected

These corrected times as compared to the top four spinnaker boats:

Lambert - 4:32:57
Turlington - 4:42:40
Smith - 4:43:34
Kelly - 4:48:33

I think if they sail the same course next year, let everyone sail the same distance and see who wins the whole enchilada!
