Really big boats in a really big race. Starting Friday. While we all have our sentimental favorites, this is a class that is breathtaking to watch.
"This year's fastest entries will be sailing in the BMW of San Rafael Division. Topping the division is Rio 100, Manouch Moshayedi’s 98-foot Super Maxi. She won Transpac’s Barn Door Trophy in 2015 and set the monohull course record for the 2016 Vallarta race. Competition should be close among the three 70-foot sleds in the race: Roy P. Disney’s Andrews 70 Pyewacket, Hector Velarde’s Andrews 70 Runaway and Edward Marez’ Santa Cruz 70 Buona Sera. Rounding out the division is Jens Kellinghusen’s Varuna VI, a brand new custom offshore Ker 56 from Germany."
