Nice Job @Raz'r. We were following closely.

Nice job @Roleur!

I'm not sure I understand your comments. Firstly, you made the suggestion that Rufless was not sailing in all honesty and you got called on it by TrevB. Now you seem to imply that Hamachi are not in proper trim. Is this a pandamnic in the J-125's?

Seems more like a case of someone caught with 5 aces. So much for the fun race to Hawaii. Off topic, when calculating the ratings at the start of the race, I really did not want to believe that the Riptide owed the fastest rated J boat something on the order of 20 hours, but................

Seriously??

I'm playing catch up after having missed most of yesterday. Looks to be decent breeze most of the way into the finish now.

And back to four hour delay..............boring.

Yep. I remember well. We couldn't get the Turbo camper to hang with the Turbo wagons!

Live tracking now, well at least every hour it seems. Blue and Rufless gybed away for better pressure and angle later. I wondered if there was a glitch but, routing confirms this to be the smart move. Got to think that Hamachi will have to follow to protect their position. Blue has just under...

@IMR is the current holder of the Moore 24 Pac cup course record and an OA winner of PacCup. Stop blushing IMR!

PM sent.

Some interesting moves yesterday and last night. Azure extended their lead substantially. Limitless has to give up ground to Spindrift in lighter conditions and less favourable heading. Rufless took a gybe away from Hamachi and gives up time in the process. Blue, is ripping ('scuse the pun)...

Thanks for pointing that out @solosailor. I meant to mention that they have maybe ten hours on the J-125's but still need another 8 or so by my reckoning!

Let me tell you about PacCup 2000. On the other hand, I'd rather not. Still blocking that one! Seriously though. It is not too common and is very much a function of the train of low pressure activity to the north.

South is not a big payoff anymore. A lot of hard work ahead for the south boats and a lot of gybing ahead for the middle road boats to stay with pressure and direction. Hurricane Darby well south of the course looks to weaken rapidly on approach to the islands. The J125 scene is the most...

Azure has opened up a bit more on Duende, some 5 hours and 21 mins projected. The lead J-125's are in a tight battle, ratings be damned. Could they finish in sight of each other? Limitless has closed up on Spindrift with a potential finish between the two well under two hours. The Moore 24...

Azure looks to have moved out again on Duende. The J-35 has slipped to the Express 37 Spindrift, who in turn is putting it to the Express 37 Limitless. Moore 24 Foamy dropped a place with the Bene 10r now leading. The J125 Rufless leads Hamachi and Blue, the Riptide 41, although Blue could...

Looks like Duende made out on their move yesterday, that I thought was not so good. Closed to Azure from a nearly six hour gap to around a two hour gap. The J-35 is keeping the Express 37's at bay. The J-125's have an interesting split and will have a close battle with the Riptide 41. Meanwhile...

Yes. Cops quite a bit of a rating relative to the fastest rated J. Interesting that Rufless rates a fair bit slower than the other J's. Duende started out well but lost the plot a bit yesterday. Oh, and I'm not convinced that the polar file for Blue is very accurate just looking at the routing.

Riptide 41 is putting the J-125's down right now.................
