Interesting choices. At the level of resolution of the Windy map I don’t see much advantage to their line. Am I missing it or are they playing more localized puffs?BRASS BALLS on Stan Honey and the braintrust on Comanche.... they are 30nm east of the other leaders and now down to 4th in the line honors races as they are WAY off the rhumb line. Alone and unfraid. Wait to see if it pays!

no you’re right... hard to see... if an advantage exists at all!Interesting choices. At the level of resolution of the Windy map I don’t see much advantage to their line. Am I missing it or are they playing more localized puffs?
The tracker was way delayed. AIS was much more in real-time. They parked for sure. I was watching as well over on SA, where people were posting live pics of them just sitting in the river, being swept in by the tide.
Jim Clark got bored and sold it in 2017, where it was renamed LDV Comanche... a typical move where the owner's company (or big sponsors) name is appended to the boat name. The current owner (Jim Cooney) dropped the LDV to go back to just Comanche.And Line Honours for Comanche. Looks like 2nd place for InfoTrack.
Is this the same Comanche? I thought it was sold last year???
Nope your not alone I have enjoyed following this as well but rarely comment as my knowledge of this level of racing is well below beginner. Don't give up the posting though as I enjoy the commentary. Next year we should start one on the R2AK. Smaller boats but a unique set of challenges still not anywhere near this caliber though.looks like just you and I in this thread JD. This would be a great race just to go watch, let alone participate in!
