I remember a day like that last year. We ghosted along forever. I can't remember which leg for sure. I was thinking it was around Daytona so it might have been this one.

Anyway we cruised along trading spots with Jake and Carl about 10 times with nobody else in sight for miles. Then we are about a mile out and we see a fleet of I20's parked near a pier. Come to find out they had been parked for a while and we carried the breeze right up to them. The wind switched and hit us all about the same time and everyone finished within about 15 minutes of eachother.

Funny how that stuff happens.

It's tough concentrating for 12 hours in light air. Ground crews have a (Dry Sandwich) and some water ready for the crews. They'll be hungry. Then tell them you have the boat and to go to their rooms and get changed and relax. They'll be fried after that long day.

Not missing days like this one,
