*(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!"
