Caribbean 1500 Final Report
Smidge Takes Top Honors in the 21th Anniversary Caribbean 1500 Rally;)
Caribbean 1500 fleet on the docks – click to enlargeWaiting for the late season Hurricane Tomas and a succession of lows to pass before leaving, the 21th Anniversary Caribbean 1500 fleet of 75 boats experienced strong northwest winds and northerly swells in its annual trek to the Caribbean – and Nanny Cay. Smidge, a Hallberg Rassey 43, owned by the Benbow family from Yardley, PA, took Overall Handicap Honors. First to finish was Sunsets, a MacGregor 65 owned by Howard Weiss and Kelly Reed of Gaithersburg,MD,.
The Caribbean 1500 Rally, managed by the Cruising Rally Association, left Hampton VA for Tortola on November 8 after a week of preparatory briefings, safety inspections, and gala social events. This year, the participants had a choice of destinations – either Marsh Harbor in the Abacos or Tortola in the British Virgin Islands. The Bahamas Class, made up of 11 boats, left a week earlier and skirted the coast to Charleston before proceeding to the Abacos.
Triple Jack wins PegLegs Round Tortola Race
;)
Geoge Lane, skipper of Triple Jack with the Round Tortola Race trophy – click to enlargeIn winds gusting in the 20-25 knot range on the north side of Tortola, Triple Jack, a 32-year old Kelsall One-Off skippered by George Lane, won the PegLegs Round Tortola Race on Saturday, November 20, for the second year in a row, beating second-placer igoodia by a shy one minute on elapsed time. Jack Dusty III a Pearson 40 skippered by 84-year-old Bill Hirst won cruising class.
The 45-foot Triple Jack circumnavigated Tortola in 3 hours 53 minutes and 27 seconds missing her personal best, set last year in unprecedented conditions for the race, by 20 minutes exactly. Breaking the daggerboard lost them some of the precious minutes needed to beat last year’s time, as did the outhaul giving way near Scrub Island. More photos after the break…
