A Sunday afternoon sail turn into a whole world of hurt for the skipper on Go To Red. What was supposed to be a routine gybe turned in the a massive wipe out for the skipper as the main sheet picked him up and deposited him the leeward side of the boat with a massive thud. Some bruised ribs and an even bigger dint to his ego was the only damage, it was not too bad as he was fitting fit for racing the following weekend. The team at GTR Racing will not miss the runners on their Mumm 36 when they make the switch to a J109 next summer.
As with most long open ocean passages it’s never a certainty as to when we’ll actually leave. There is currently a very small weather window and it’s looking like we’ll leave Tuesday night (2 days from now). In the mean time, the crew and I are servicing, cleaning, maintaining, organizing, and preparing ourselves and the boat. The plan is to get to Bermuda (3-4 days) and then after a few days sail south to St Martin I’m the Caribbean (5-6 days).
