    That is a most excellent point, Bill!

    The SHTP - it's like Lay's potato chips.

    Ok, cool. I am reaching out to the guy who did the surveys I was referring to. I want to see if he will share the methodology he used. Should have some feedback in a couple of days.

    I was looking for the spreadsheet from this feed and noticed your comment, Bill, and need to make a correction. Linda Newland was the first (and only) woman to have done the SHTP twice. Her former name was Linda Weber-Rettie. She didn't stop with that race either. She also sailed solo from SF to Kobe, Japan, and still holds the record (52 days) for a woman's solo transpacific crossing. And this was the whole ocean, too....not just half of one, as someone said to me once.

    I stand corrected. Oh well, you can still be the second but then you would probably have to sail all the way to New Zealand to cross the "whole ocean". I think the SHTP is fine just the way it is. By the way - with all your "admin control" power, maybe you can change the name of this thread to be "SHTP Results 1978 to Present".

    Ha, ha. It wasn't me that made the title change. Someone probably thought it best to not let me tinker with things like that.

    I'm actually thinking of doing the PacCup next year with two women friends. Does that kinda count?

    That absolutely counts. I was thinking of just flying over to Kauai next year to shake everyones hand and pat them on the back. I know that doesn't count - unless maybe I go out on the Sea Squirrel at 3am.
