    Default LongPac Tactics Seminar on May 12th

    I am pleased to announce our first 2011 LongPac Seminar. Stan Honey will be giving a talk on tactics for the LongPac on Thursday, May 12th at 7:30pm at the Oakland Yacht Club. Stan was recently awarded the 2010 Rolex Yachtsman of the Year for his work as navigator on Groupama 3. Groupama 3 set the record for fastest time around the planet at 48 days, seven hours and 45 minutes. He was also the winning navigator aboard ABN Amro One in the 2006 Volvo Ocean race. Closer to home, Stan completed in our Single Handed TransPac aboard his CAL 40 “ILLUSION” with an elapsed time of 11:10:52:21 (OK, that is a full ten days faster than my time!). Stan still holds the corrected time course record for the SHTP. Stan is now working on many projects including the America’s Cup here in the San Francisco bay. He is also a great guy! Save the date for this special talk.
