    A close race between the MOD70 Orion and the former Groupama2 renamed Mighty Merloe saw the MOD70 come in just 2 minutes ahead. Mighty Merloe suffered a broken foil in the Puerto Vallarta race and have a port side foil inserted upside down in their starboard case as a stop gap measure till a replacement arrives. A good roundup of the race from BYMnews:

    The 28' trimaran Mama Tried claimed the handicap win on corrected time.
