Just a few more weeks until the big event starts on March 5. Let us hope it fares better than last year.

TRACKER-- http://watertribe.com/Events/ChallengeGMapper.aspx

can't find "Spawn"........FOUND: shown as "two beers"-Tampa Bay 22-built for this race

"Sew Sew" Randy Smythe-in the lead but so far not on tracker-Found: SS's icon is very dark-blends into the map background-just below South Venice....

Yes, thank you, Jeff.

I did not get there early enough to ID or chat with contestants. I got there at 7am but it was hard to find a parking space.

I just showed up and started clicking photos.

Everglades Challenge

I'd like to do the Challenge some day in the right boat. I saw one guy sailing a sunfish-that's definitely not the right boat for me......

Maybe Hoyt. I'm going to start a thread in multihulls: "The EC Challenge-the Right Boat". I'll put a link here in a few minutes.
