Here's a rough and ready video I made with my GoPro on board White Rose during the race. Warning ... it's three minutes of your life you'll never get back. Credit to Jackie Philpott for the title photo. TS

We anxiously await the launching of “Wisdom,” Alan H.'s new skerry. His PHRF just came in, and with a rating of 426, we are all in trouble. Meanwhile, I can't let Alan have all the fun playing in sawdust and glue. Read on: Most of you know a little over two years ago I abandoned and scuttled WILDFLOWER returning from Hanalei. At the time, shoreside...
