This past weekend was the Gulfport to Pensacola Race, a 100 NM offshore 
sailboat race.  Active list member Dennis C sailed Touche’, a C&C 35 mk1, over 
100 NM in under 13 hrs to win 1st place in his class. 

 What makes this even more spectacular is the fact that at 40 NM before the 
finish, Touche’ suffered a total failure of the back stay adjuster.  Dennis 
quickly kludged a temporary fix using a couple blocks and lines led to aft 
winches.
