Vic-Maui J/145 "Sharkey" Update

J/145 owner having fun!*(Hawaii)- Vic-Maui Race notes from Jay Sharkey- "Just got back from CRUSHING the Vic-Maui on the J/145 DOUBLE TAKE (nee Stark Raving Mad/ Bad Pak and the boat I've been taking care of) and I gotta tell you, she's one helluva of a machine.  Had her surfing down those mythical Pacific swells at 20+kts for days!  We even managed the 7th best elapsed time in the 44 year history of the race slower only to a handful of the sleds and a custom Perry 65.  Not bad! Hope you enjoy some of the shots we took during and after the race.  The crew absolutely LOVED their experience on this bad-ass ride!"
