Is this the boat your buddy bought that has navigation issues? Enjoy the journey!

Cool. How long of a race is that? How many people on your boat?

Thanks all! I’ve always wanted to do a destination ocean race.

@BigMike J24s are a blast.

@Blue J  This boat belongs to one of the parents of the kids that I coach in Florida. Haha we’ve got all the Nav software and GPS on this boat.

@patman there is 5 of us on the boat. Pretty simple boat. Not flying a spinnaker in this fleet. Also have electric winches instead of traditional crank winches.
We should be in Key West by Thursday night or Friday Morning. 28-36 hours.
