Not that I’m aware of.
Except for the one that came to the Caribbean from Europe I haven’t heard of any in North America. Don’t know where that one is now.
Start and finish shots from yesterday’s Corinthian Race.

Classic winter conditions with about ten different wind directions, all of them light.
3.7 hours around a thirteen mile track.
Top multihull started second to last of the multihulls.
Top monohull started last of the monos.
Nice reversal on last year where the fast boats were hosed long before they started.
Beautiful sailing yesterday, trying out the new A-1 on Bottle Rocket.
So happy to have all the big sails on furlers with all the double handed racing on the schedule.
The side to side pipe of the 11m boat I sailed on was 100mm in diameter.
We got most of the water over in about 20 seconds and then topped up the new tank after the tack while draining the last bit out of the old.
So, yes, probably a minute total.
