Yesterday, we learned of and corrected a scoring error in the application of a 30-minute penalty to boats starting OCS. While several boats were over the starting line early in Newport, only one position change is noted, in Class 18: Desperado moves to first place and Alchemist, to second. Our apologies to the crews of the affected boats.
So a big congratulations is in order to @NEKA_Sailing ’s custom J/120 Desperado, captained by Leonid Vasiliev. This group of @WebbSailing Team college students sailed themselves into 2nd place in the Gibbs Hill Division behind @WarriorWonPac52 with a corrected time of 046:04:34.

The talk on the dock is that this race was a “sailmaker’s dream” as plenty of spinnakers were torn during the rare downwind Thrash to the Onion Patch.
Life onboard was not easy for the nearly 1,600 sailors who raced to Bermuda Race this year but this is why they do it!

Yesterday, the Governor of Bermuda 🇧🇲, Rena Lalgie walked the docks of @royalbermudayc chatting with the sailors, particularly the youth sailors of the @ratzracing about their initiatives.
As the sun begins to set on another Bermuda Race, we are so thankful for all the sailors, volunteers, and fans who are a part of this 116 year tradition.

John Browning is the current living record holder for the most Bermuda Races with 27. Second to Jim Mertz with 30 but he has “sailed his last Bermuda Race” as they say. He has never sailed it on his own boat and the boat he crewed in this year, JCurve, almost never made it to the starting line.
Listen to this great interview over some @goslingsrum for some great stories. Link in bio to our YouTube page.
