From San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge to the Queen Mary in Long Beach. 415 miles in the open ocean, the 'Patriotic Duty' team consistant of Tony Adams, Steve Seaton, and Allen Bellinghausen will battle in their record attemt. They will be sending live video and audio throughout their run in their Outerlimits 47'. Start is scheduled for 08:00 PST tomorrow Friday Sept. 15th. My family wish the team all the best of luck. Godspeed!

Congrats on one heck of a run. 5 hours and 18 minutes unofficially. That breaks down to more than 75 mph on average. The weather gods were certainly kind this time around, but this is never an easy run. It will take a very serious challenge to beat this record in the future.
