So...when you raced against the Navy did they kick your ass?
I wonder what the 44's have been replaced with, any ideal?
Not sure what the replacement boats are but I could find out. We know
the fellow who is the contact person for the auction boats, been on
our boat at the Key West regatta a number of times.
The USNA 44s were not usually at the top of the fleet standings in big
boat competition like the Newport-Bermuda race, which is where I
usually saw them back in the 90s. The navy views them as a training
and team/leadership building program as opposed to being a top notch
racing effort which is a much more expensive proposition.
