Report from the Island - 2300 Island Time
Patience is a virtue. Having enough supplies on board to prevent mutiny on a MacRace that runs longer than hoped is supurb planning.
As stated in previous reports the GL70’s and Section 1 competitors are all finished or accounted for.
Where do the rest stand?
Multihulls - all accounted for - with the exception of Big Storm.
Section 2 - 13 of the 18 entries have arrived.
Section 3 is coming along with 8 of 20 registered boats.
Winners have made it in for two of the J Classes.
The J120 Perserverance from Marquette Michigan finished at 9:16 pm race time. 40 minutes before the second place Elusive.
In J105 Zeitgeist crossed the finish line at 20:59:30 - 55.5 hours after their start.
The water between the bridge and the finish line is on the way to becoming a parking lot. The Sydney 38 Spirit Walker called from the bridge at approximately 8:45 PM race time, and as of this writing at 10:10 PM they had not yet traversed the 5 mile stretch.
