Infiniti 46 Maverick, Transpac 2019 report | Sailing Anarchy
In the end, it was all about the finish. After three days of racing neck and neck with the Botin 65 Caro, the last few hours saw us come from behind to cross just 39 seconds ahead of them. Boatspeed in the low 20’s, an A2 far beyond its design wind range or angle with a widening hole from a previous repair, and a diminishing amount of track to run all made for an exhilarating ride that none of us will forget.
