I want to wish all the competitors good luck and great sailing in the 2013 LongPac! I will be "watching" you from New Jersey and wishing I was on the water with you.
Sail fast, sail safe!

I agree with Paul. I love the HMB race as it is now. I love it because 1) the party at the HMB Yacht Club is a blast! 2) It's ocean sailing 3) the course is not easy, there are many different...
