There's some really interesting stuff going on right now. Like the Open Class. Only two boats in it. Phaedo, a 66' Gunboat and the 289' Maltese Falcon on charter. Nearly halfway across the Atlantic and they're only about 50 miles apart.
The crazy fast machines (Rambler, ICAP Leopard, etc.) started two days ago and are blasting through the field at 20+ knots.
The tracker is kinda retarded but it's still fun to imagine. http://www.transatlanticrace.org/tracker.html
Can you imagine the stress level on Falcon? "Excuse me, but are we out of the '67?"
