for some big cat action check out gitana 13's website

the ex-orange boat and crew were trying to beat the ny to sf record and went south at a huge rate of knots but getting around the horn the wrong way is hard enough at the best of times and this time there was a mother of a storm waiting for them so they seem to have doubled back to sit it out
