The Abaco Rage is the proud winner of the H. Bowen White Trophy on this the first day of racing in the HTSC winter series! Boxing Day had perfect light air conditions for the 15 crew members on board and they were scratch boat during the whole race. Skipper Richard Cook led them over the start line first, around every mark first, and over the finish first. They ended up winning by 100 seconds on corrected time. Congratulations to the whole crew!
Editor’s Footnote: As of Dec. 27th, there is a protest in place for the race result calculations. I will add the corrected results when they become available. Everyone had such a good time anyway and what an accomplishment to lead the pack around the whole course!
(Dec. 28th Update: The Rage was 4th overall in the race.)
