Cape Cod; I didn't race the Miami one. However when you crest a wave and look to your starboard and about 1/2 mile away you see Miss Budwiser about 20 feet in the air with her bow shooting straight for the clouds, you realize quickly, today is more about survival than competition.

Yeah - it was pretty unbelievable to me that we were out there racing at all. We finally had an engine hydraulic after stuffing several times. I still have the cockpit video from that race. It was crazy!

I think even the super cats had speeds in the 60's, and they had the storm course.

I don't Rember him turning around, and I was there, but he was running a 32' CAT with in OPEN class back then. "THE LEGEND" Errol Lainer was leading for along time in that race. Sloopy Joes flipped, It was HUGE!!!!!
