Good Luck to all the teams competing in the Tybee 500 this year. I'd like to wish fair winds and following seas upon the fleet.

Stay safe out there.

Did that start today or tomorrow? It usually starts on Mother's Day, right?

Good luck to all! I hope the wind is good to you.

Hey, nice avatar Mike!

Race starts tomorrow... the teams got some light wind tuning and testing in today. Tonight a front is moving through and bringing with it winds in the 12 to 18 range from the ENE. Tuesday looks knarly.

There won't be much to see tomorrow since its a water start but Ill turn on the ustream for the launchings.

Soooo...are there two classes, F18's and I20's??

And are you sure that's JC?? It could be someone else trying to look like him.

I mean, what if JW shaved his head? ;^) Come to think of it, I've never seen the two of them in the same room at the same time...hmmm...

That's about 2 feet of vertical distance there Timbo... Elevator shoes, maybe?

But it could be either JC or Kenny. Someone said the Krakken was entered in the race

Two Infusions, a Wildcat and a C2.

Currently with a 3 mile (+or-) lead over the second spot, PepPod. It's fun to watch the trackers!

Sail safe everyone!
