Re: Any Sailors here? I have 10 14 year old girls here on my daughter's sleepover so there won't be much sleep in this house tonight - what a racket!
Makes managing the start easier though!

RE: Any Sailors here? Just logged on, found myself (and everyone else) in the middle of a dead zone. They should have gotten Verizon to sponsor the pro sails.
Oh well, looks like I have a couple of days before I can run aground again.

Re: Any Sailors here? 9:40 a.m. Eastern Standard TIme
Onejacker has taken the reins. Flaps ten degrees....firewall throttle.
Good luck to all, especially us THT'ers. Lord knows I need some luck. Trying to improve on my 55,519 finish in the last leg. Gotta remember to play the course, not you guys, although out-racing The Menz would be fun.
