“Come Hell or high water,” as our first regatta chair Brian Malone liked to say. This distance race stays in Hillsborough Bay, but it’s far from a casual cruise. It’s a chance to test your navigation and be ready to sail if a front moves through. Decisions may start at the bar watching radar, but this race is meant to sharpen your heavy-weather skills. Wind and tide permitting, we’ll keep the course inside the bay.
