Naples, FL | looks like fun!
On the other coast (Naples) with the offshore breeze, we were topping 18 kts kite reaching on the F24 in the relatively flat (1 meter) water.

Florida Keys | 2016 Steeplechase Catamaran Race, December 10-11, Islamorada to Key Largo and Back. The 32nd running of the Steeplechase was a challenge, and that’s just as it should be. This years event was won by the Team of Jamie Livingstone and Kenny Pierce on a Tornado in a fast total time for the two days of 7 hours, 48 minutes. Second was Ralph and Pat Cole on a Nacra 20 Carbon followed up by James Zelmer and Joe Velwave on a F18 (with a team name “Hobie 21”). Special mention to the F18 team of David Reed and Mark Herendeen who, despite being demasted during day one, were able to recover and race the second day back from Key Largo. In the true spirit of endurance beachcat racing, other teams provided the needed parts and help to get them back on the water for Sunday’s start.

Solomon's Island, MD | +1 Mike, had the same correction in mind. Stock or modified T? Why are they using Portsmouth? Not only is it a dead rating system for beachcats, it has no meaning when you throw a F20c into the mix. I'd be curious what the results under SCHRS would be (doubt they would change much). Hopefully 2016 will bring more particpants and Rick back to good health  And yes Dennis, prize money is enticing, may cover part of the cost of getting a boat down there. Maybe.
