The team is expected to have a couple of support/fuel boats staged along the way, including a sizable yacht and one of the Herbst brothers' boats. It will be interesting to see what happens. Supposedly there's going to be a huge party on the beach at the conclusion. That's where the tequila will come in handy!

FYI - I know you're all kidding about the OL boat not making it around LI, I assume the quad diesel boat?
I went there (OL) last week just to see the boat and what went wrong. I can tell you the problem was minor and easily solved. All in all the boat, drives, engines all did 100%, the drop boxes had a minor oiling issue. It was not unsimilar to issues the Gancia had at one point.
The Brits seen what was wrong are making fixes and mark my words that boat will be one of the strongest running endurance racers in a long time, in fact the only boat that can challenge Buzzi!
