[brianb00]

The Great Longitude Pacific race departs SF in July and is a single handed jaunt 200 miles west and home. Here are a pair of silly video's I made aboard my Olson 34 during the 2009 adventure.

Big Ocean...

Thanks for sharing these!
Was/is this event a one or two night stint?

Sounds a bit tiring...
Do you have a wind-vane steerer?

Long Pac 2009

The distance is a total of 400 miles. Started on a Wednesday. I finished on Friday night about 2 am. So 2.8 nights ? It was a bit slow out there a good part of the trip. Max winds about 18.

Surprised at how much fun it was on this trip. Caught 3 albacore (catch and releae) ...
