WE WIN!!!
 
http://www.byc.com/mack06/results-so...?Class=IRC%20F

Beat every boat in our class outright.

http://www.byc.com/mack06/results-overall.cfm

14th overall.

Couldn't help thinking, if we'd been sailing one of those oh-so-fast
Beneteau 35s5's, we would have won overall.

Bwahahahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahahahahhahahahaha

Pictures to follow.

Nah, you'd have been tied to the dock with the AC on
watching a movie.

Hey, somebody who posts here has actually been doing some sailing?

Congrats, probably a very competitive field.

Yeah, the big boats are semi-professionally crewed, got guys from NZ and OZ
sailing on them. A small boat could conceivably win overall, under the right
circumstances, but I'm willing to bet it hasn't happened in a very long
time. Finishing 14th overall with the1st in our division feels absolutely
unreal. Thanks, and yeah, it was actually sailing, the boat will end up with
over 500 miles in long distance races this year.

With great interest. However, dueling with the resident troll.
Winning for the most part.

Hard to argue with published results of a major regatta. Troll can't
take that one on.

The only thing negative I've heard about them is that they're substantially
slower than a Beneteau 35s5.

(Now where did I hear that??)
