Tomorrow is the day!

Tyson and I will depart liberty landing Marina at first light to try and bring the Bermuda challenge world record back to the US! Time to beat is 17 hours, 6 minutes.

We will have a live video stream and tracker up and running tomorrow on boating magazine's web page:

StormSurf model is showing 2 - 4's in that part of the Atlantic over the next couple of days and that is probably as good as it gets. Best of luck to Tyson and Chris.
