Hey Oz--
I could not put the book down and actually was
reading it aloud to other people on the boat. It's called "The Proving Ground" http://www.powells.com/cgi-bin/bibli...16499552:10.98 Lots of info about that particular race. Capt. JG wrote: There's a book about it... forget the name. Good book. I challenged him to a race one, but he turned me down... absolute truth. :-) -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Maxprop" wrote What can you tell me about Larry Ellison's boat Sayonnara? I'm told he raced it in the Hobart the year so many died. Any knowledge about that? I was looking it over rather thoroughly today. It's in storage in a building in Holland, MI, waiting for who knows what. Sure is a big *******. |

Hey Oz--
That's it! Great book. I liked the description of "apartment building size
waves" and why would any sane person pay to do this. :-) -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Bart" wrote in message oups.com...
