Hey! I'm famous (not really) N/A

[Capt. Geoffrey Thorpe]

(Ok - I can't get the picture to show up right - above is a link to the article - That's me on the bow looking at my watch (and wearing "that" hat) - photo taken just before the start of the '07 Bayview Yacht Club Port Huron to Mackinac race)

LOL.

It has one string under the chin and one around the back of my head - I have yet to lose one. (but I do carry a spare)

So, who else has had their 5 1/2 seconds of fame?

Yup. Same boat.

With the tracker it should be just like flightaware

8 knots is blazing fast.
