The leaders are now 2/3 through the 360 mile course.
The paddlers/peddlers may just pull this off! BendRacing (two person kayak) has rounded the B’ham marker and is headed south – at 4+ mph, followed closely by Boogie Barge (multi hulled peddle power). Big Broderna (Trimaran sailboat) is now about 18 miles behind, still heading north towards the marker – doing just over 3 mph.
I can’t find any winds in the area above 5 knots. Of course, a few hours of good wind, and ball game over.
I cannot fathom the stamina of the guys in the two lead boats. It looks to me like they have averaged 4 mph for 240 miles. 60 hours without much rest. Incredible.
