Marblehead to Halifax Race results

I am a bit late with this, the results are finally tabulated and posted at the official page. What's interesting this year ? Well, for starters there was a suprise in my favorite category. Campbell's Sloop, a beatifull Jeanneau 38 has taken the first place in Cruising. She completed the race at just under 81 hours. She has beaten much larger and better equipped boats. 81 hours is a good time, but to put things into perspective compare this to the best time of the Multihull category where 60 feet St. Maarten finished in under 37 hours. In other words, the best Cruiser finished the run in about 3 and 1/3 days, and the best Catamaran ran for just 1 and 1/2 day.

I have about 2 years before I have enough experience to compete in this. Meanwhile, BYC has a bit more relaxed event, annual Cruise to Nantucket and the Islands. Fun.
