They were 8 seconds apart in the results at the start of today. edit; nah, key sailing is still ahead by about 2 miles. Last edited by Jake; 05/22/14 01:22 PM. Reason: because the tracker has no scale Jake Kohl

tshan old hand T Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 1,121 Eastern NC, USA	Originally Posted by Redtwin Were there any dog fighters in today's race? The SIs said they were to carry SPOT trackers, so my guess is "no" - but that is purely a guess. They had the same safety requirements minus an EPIRB, so maybe people didn't want to do a one day race and have to set up/purchase all that gear. Dunno. Tom

While it would have been interesting, maybe it's better that the weekend warriors stayed home? Mike
