Dawn sets a record

A short video and an EC report from Paul


With only a two-hour delay due to a small-craft advisory, the 2018 Everglades Challenges started with 107 boats and featured a full moon for night-time sailing and near-perfect weather at the start on Saturday and Sunday allowing us (Alan and Paul) to improve and finish in a little less than 48 hours. This was the 6th EC for the "Dawn Patrol" crewed by Alan and Paul. Alan and Dawn equally have completed a boatload of ECs and NC Challenges. This year, Dawn (a.k.a. SandyBottom) in her Kruger Dream Catcher also improved her best time to 5 days, 5 hours, 32 minutes and is now very happy to hold the record time for "Class 1 kayak solo female". This was her 14th Everglades Challenge.
