Rambler seems to be holding its own against Comanche. The gap is only 7
miles, and Yellowbrick lists it in first!
Guess I need to wear the NE Boatworks hat I got in Newport! (Harry, thank
the boss for including it in the goody bag!)
If you have read the blogs, the race has been pretty brutal
Comanche and Rambler started today with the two multihulls. Just now they
were running 17.9 and 17 knots respectively.
The multihull Phaedo was doing 25.2 knots. Wow!

Really looking forward to the contest between Comanche and Rambler. Start
Sunday afternoon.
The classic schooner out in front, Mariette of 1915 is gorgeous. What a ride
that has to be.

Cool Stuff,
Some of that becomes clearer with this;
https://www.windyty.com/?38.608,-65.918,6 You can see how the leaders
made short work of the beat off the continental shelf and are now flying
across at 10-14 knots plus on a beam reach enjoying a 16-24 knot
southwesterly..
Isn't this
There is also a wind overlay on the tracker site. Definitely more pressure
south of the layline.
Second group starts tomorrow. Sunday the big boys start, as does the
Marblehead/Halifax race. Didn't see any CC's in that one, but I know one
skipper and there are several boats from Annapolis
The 2015 race is on from Newport to England. One of the older, smaller
entries is a 1967 CC/Bruckman 41, Dizzy! Less than 2700 NM to go! Big
boats start later in the week.
Rambler or Comanche for line honors?
