I thought that this group might be interested that we are racing my 1990 Ericson-built 911 (Shanti USA326) in this year's Transpac. We are the smallest boat in the '07 fleet.
Our start is on Monday at 1300 PDT from Long Beach. We brought her down from San Francisco (via the Coastal Cup) over the last two weekends.
If anyone is interested in our progress, I'm trying to
keep a blog on the effort at
www.eberlyoceanracing.com/blog/ . Hopefully this page
will include a real-time position link from the
committee tracking beacon after we start.
>From this list, a lot of thanks go out to Dave Fain,
Charlie Pick, Bob Izmirian, Paul Disario, and Kelly
Robinson for all their thoughtful advice (and gear
loans).
Wish us luck.
Break a leg! May the winds be with you!
