This might go down as the slowest Newport to Cabo Race in the history books!
The monohulls have been racing for just under 48 hours and so far 10 boats have retired citing lack of wind. The race committee has once again extended the finish time limit to Sunday at 1700. However, it seems all boats spirits remain high and position reports have been entertaining. These were some of our favorites:
– Several boats have requested virgin sacrifice to appease the Wind Gods…
– A few boats have considered “copy & paste” from last night’s check-in…
– The MEX Navy is laughing at everyone “racing” to Cabo… (True story)
The multihulls have been racing for just under 24 hours and have almost caught the monohull leaders. Pheado3 and Mighty Merloe are in a battle and appear to be covering each other as they make their way down the coast.
