Although we have yet to officially pay...'Blue Moon' will most definitely be at the Start for the 2010 SHTP. We are just recovering from having just bought a New Mainsail--and a New set of Twin Headsails---and a New_____--and a New______. Is anyone else suffering from the "And a New" syndrome????...It will be well worth it I'm sure. :) I would very much like to get the contact info of all the skippers via email...If you all wouldn't mind sending me a simple email at oceanslogic@gmail.com that would be great. I am currently working on a project called "Profile of a Singlehander" and would like to get info from everyone participating in this year's race. Thanks for your help...Talk with you all real soon..

Jeanne's location as reported in 15-April web posting puts her well clear of Cape Horn exiting Southern Ocean.

Sam, I think she's going the other way! Longitude is 110 E not W.

Thanks for fixing my math. Here's the corrected LAT-LONG:
