This sounds like an incredible time...if I can go visit my daughter in WPB that week, I might be able to scoot down there.

Are they (or have they ever) planned to do any coverage via satellite tracking on the boats? I saw a website about a week ago where one of the European series was streaming a race online...each of the boats was visible on a continuously updated screen. This seems like a natural for a race like this - especially when the boats are out of sight of the land...would be a nice supplement for a streamed helicopter camera.

BTW - that photo of the Statement has to be one of my all-time favorites!

Good Job Brad, Thank You to everyone. Hope to make it this year so I can break Ball$ and point my finger, but I know my two cousins Val and Guilio are going so they can help again with The Kids and boat rides. Nice going Ron, this is your baby!
