Would there be harbor or beach access for an invited Farrier/Corsair trimaran Fleet that could start, say, three or four hours ahead of the catamaran fleet?
I remember that one year Jim Oliver and the crew aboard a boat, I believe was called RedLegs, during the Ft. Lauderdale to Key West Race, plucked Chris Christensen off his 5.2 at night. They rounded up under the chute, and there was Chris, strapped to his boat. He had duck - taped the damage to the bridle attachment failure in the bow and was asking them to help him right his boat so he could continue.
...One of the most amazing sailing stories of catamarans in the Gulf Stream I have ever heard - regarding safety at sea.
If I have fudged any of the general details, Please correct.
If you feel having a squadron of Tris within radio intercept at midway would help protect the sailors, fit in with the cultural exchange project with kids, and earn bonus points with Homeland Security, Customs, the USCG, and Cuban authorities then let's hear your thoughts.
Thanking You in Advance,
