Cabo race boats are ready to go


LONG BEACH, Calif.--- Eight of the fastest monohulls on the West coast start Saturday, Nov. 8 from just off the Belmont Veterans Memorial Pier on their 800-nautical mile run in the 2008 Long Beach to Cabo San Lucas International Yacht Race hosted by Long Beach Yacht Club.

Coming to the line for the 12 noon start will be Doug Baker’s Andrews 80, Magnitude 80; Per Peterson’s Andrews 70, Alchemy; Bob Lane’s Andrews 63, Medicine Man; Peter Tong’s Santa Cruz 70, OEX; Ed McDowell’s Santa Cruz 70, Grand Illusion; Brack Duker’s Santa Cruz 70, Holua; Kevin Flanigan’s Fox 44, Ocelot, and Chris Slagerman’s Peterson 68, Cheetah.

Baker’s Magnitude 80 is the best bet to be the first boat to finish, being the fastest rated maxi in the fleet. As quick as they are he missed breaking the race record last year by only 57 minutes.

Baker said his goal is to finish in less than “3 days 3 hours 46 minutes 24 seconds” --- the record set by the Santa Cruz 70 Blondie in 1985. “But who’s keeping track? We want to see what the weather will do and get there fast.”

But what if you’re not one of the fastest boats in the fleet?

Flanigan’s Ocelot, Portland, Ore., a very quick boat in its own right, has the slowest rating in the race and its own perspective and plan.

Skipper Greg Nelson explains, “We’re looking forward to warm weather sailing and nipping on the heels of the bigger boats. We have a heavy displacement and a lot of waterline, but in wind over 15 knots we do pretty well. We just want to make a strong showing and enjoy the nice warm air.”

Missing from this year’s race is the 2007 winner on corrected handicap time, Peligroso, whose co-owner Mike Campbell recently passed away after a long battle with cancer.

Peligroso will make a ceremonial start five minutes before the official start time, in tribute and appreciation to Campbell and his contributions to the sport.

Competitors finish at Cabo Falso located at the west end of Cabo San Lucas and, weather conditions permitting, should start arriving Tuesday afternoon/evening.

Trophy presentations will be hosted by LBYC for all competitors Thursday evening, Nov.13 in Cabo San Lucas.

In Baker’s words, “We’re ready to go!”

Light air spawns unique tactics in Cabo race start


LONG BEACH, Calif.--- A record-breaking run may be a bit of a challenge for competitors in the 804-nautical mile 2008 Long Beach to Cabo San Lucas International Yacht Race, hosted by Long Beach Yacht Club, as eight boats ranging in size from 44-80 feet took off Saturday in a very light breeze of 3-4 knots.

Starting off the Belmont Veterans Memorial Pier, interesting tactics played out after the boats crossed the start line. Three of the boats tacked over to port and went right while the other five stayed on starboard electing to go through the lee of Island Chaffee --- not normally a wise move in a sailboat race in Long Beach Harbor.

Catching up with the fleet on the other side of the island revealed the boats that went behind the island actually gained on the boats that tacked off for more breeze.

Leading the pack of boats that stayed on starboard tack was Doug Baker’s Andrews 80, Magnitude 80, followed by Peter Tong’s Santa Cruz 70, OEX; Bob Lane’s Andrews 63, Medicine Man; Chris Slagerman’s Peterson 68, Cheetah and Kevin Flanigan’s Fox 44, Ocelot.

Those that took a bit of a hit for doing what seemed the common sense thing to do were Brack Duker’s Santa Cruz 70, Holua; Per Peterson’s Andrews 70, Alchemy and Ed McDowell’s Santa Cruz 70, Grand Illusion.

Weather models indicated that the breeze was building farther south, as Grand Illusion’s watch captain Patrick O’Brien confirmed Saturday morning.

“It looks like it could be building to 15 knots [of wind] later today,” O’Brien said. “Mag 80 really has the only chance of breaking the record… we’ll just have to see how it goes.”


Competitors finish at Cabo Falso located at the west end of Cabo San Lucas and, weather conditions permitting, should start arriving Tuesday afternoon/evening.

Trophy presentations will be hosted by LBYC for all competitors Thursday evening, Nov.13 in Cabo San Lucas.

Mag 80 retires as SC 70s go for Cabo record


LONG BEACH, Calif.--- As the boats in the 2008 Long Beach to Cabo San Lucas International Yacht Race neared the halfway point, Doug Baker’s favored Magnitude 80 retired from the race early Sunday morning for, at this writing, unspecified reasons. Meanwhile, the three Santa Cruz 70s in the race --- Peter Tong’s OEX, Ed McDowell’s Grand Illusion and Brack Duker’s Holua --- all were on pace to break the race record of 3 days 3 hours 46 minutes 24 seconds set in 1985 by one of the first Santa Cruz 70s ever built, William C. Martin’s, Blondie.

Race official Randy Beers reported: “Magnitude 80 left a voice-mail message at [LBYC] this morning [Sunday]. They reported retiring from the race, headed to Ensenada, should arrive in 10 hours. All aboard are okay, no status on the boat.”

Using current elapsed time projections provided by iBoat Track and based on current wind projections and average boat speed, OEX is expected to finish approximately 5 hours ahead of the record and Grand Illusion and Holua about 4 hours ahead.

The rest of the fleet were also making good time in a strong northwesterly breeze of 18-22 knots which began filling early Sunday morning, boosting average boat speeds to 15-17 knots.

Virtually neck-and-neck were Bob Lane’s Andrews 63, Medicine Man, and Per Peterson’s Andrews 70, Alchemy, with Chris Slagerman’s Peterson 68, Cheetah, following close behind.

Kevin Flanigan’s Fox 44, Ocelot, also retired from the race Sunday morning.

“We decided to pull the plug last night [Saturday],” skipper Greg Nelson said. “It took us eight hours to go 20 miles and we couldn’t see us finishing before the cutoff [12 noon, Thursday, Nov. 13].”

Enjoying the ride, Medicine Man’s navigator Mike Priest reported, “At 0800 [hours] we were 30-25N, 117-29W, 4 foot seas, 60 percent clouds, but clearing quickly. Wind 25 knots. Wheeeeee!”

Competitors finish at Cabo Falso located at the west end of Cabo San Lucas and, weather conditions permitting, should start arriving Tuesday morning.

Trophy presentations will be hosted by LBYC for all competitors Thursday evening, Nov.13 in Cabo San Lucas.

Five of six boats set to break Cabo record



LONG BEACH, Calif.---Five of the remaining six competitors in the 2008 Long Beach to Cabo San Lucas International Yacht Race --- including the smallest boat in the race, Bob Lane’s Andrews 63, Medicine Man --- were projected Monday to break the race record of 3 days 3 hours 46 minutes 24 seconds when they finish Tuesday morning.

However, the leading favorite to break the record, Doug Baker’s Magnitude 80, will not be among them. Baker reported Monday that the backstay gave way under 20 knots of wind early Sunday morning, and down came the mast. All aboard were reported okay as they motored into Ensenada.

It was ironic that the boat that set the record in the 3,571-nautical mile race to Tahiti earlier this year, suffered such a catastrophic failure in a relatively close-to-home 804-nautical mile race to Mexico.

“At about 2 a.m. Sunday morning the backstay parted and the rig came down,” Baker said. “The crew did one heck of a job in cutting it away, making sure it didn’t sink the boat and then getting us underway to Ensenada.” (There is a detailed report from Mag 80 navigator Ernie Richau below this post.)

The rest of the fleet have been under the graces of consistent northwest winds of 16-20 knots and --- except for Chris Slagerman’s Peterson 68, Cheetah --- were expected to break the record.

Medicine Man was holding its own against the bigger boats and was projected to cross the finish line just behind OEX, the leader for first-to-finish honors.

Quite an achievement and quite an adventure as Med Man navigator Mike Priest reports.

“The transponder has spent some of the time under water as we stuff the nose under at 25 knots of boatspeed,” Priest said. “Wind in the low twenties most of the night. Looks like a 320-plus-mile day for us yesterday [Sunday].”

Also onboard the boat is owner Bob Lane’s daughter, Cheri Lane, who having crewed on races to Ensenada and Santa Barbara before, wanted to do a long distance race… at least once.

“Co-habitating with 10 guys aboard a 63-foot vessel has been an experience,” Lane said. “But the most memorable experience will be doing this with my father. Being able to share his joy and passion is something I will always treasure and never forget.”

Competitors finish at Cabo Falso located at the west end of Cabo San Lucas and, weather conditions permitting, should start arriving Tuesday morning.

Trophy presentations will be hosted by LBYC for all competitors Thursday evening, Nov.13 in Cabo San Lucas.

Magnitude 80 report from navigator Ernie Richau:
I know everyone is interested in how the last couple of days have transpired for Magnitude 80 and her crew. I am now at home and have a minute to write you an update.

We started the race (on Saturday) in a very light SSW wind with our 154% genoa beating toward Mexico. The wind built to 7 knots and we set the code 3a spinnaker then began to reach down the middle of the Channel between Catalina and Newport beach. As evening set in we were approximately 20 miles east of San Clemente Island. The wind backed to the SSW again so we hoisted the genoa and sailed upwind in 4-6 knots of breeze. The crew was looking forward to the forecasted 25 knots of wind for the NW. Once we got south of San Clemente Island the wind finally began to build and go aft.

A couple of hours later we were reaching at 18 knots of boat speed when there was a nasty sound of cracking carbon and we abruptly slowed down. We had hit something in the water. The floor boards were lifted around the keel to check for damage and none was found.

The dagger board was inspected. It was making some very strange noises and clearly slowing the boat down. We cycled the board up and down a few times and determined there was some damage and we would keep it up for the night, then give it a good inspection at first light. A few hours later we had the code 4a spinnaker up running at 18 knots of boat speed. Soon it was time to change to the code 3a spinnaker. The wind had built to above 25 knots. Our teams plan before the start was to sail conservatively when the wind came up the first night. We knew the weather pattern was right for another race record and we didn't want to make any foolish mistakes in the stronger breeze.

It was now 3am (on Sunday), the crew was having a fantastic time sailing the boat at 19-22 knots of boat speed. The wind was from the NW at 25 gusting to 28. Things were going very well as I plotted our position and gathered more weather data in the nav station. We were about 155 miles from Cedros, just as planned for that time of the morning. Suddenly, there was a very loud bang that that only breaking carbon can make. This was nothing like the cracking sound I had heard earlier and I knew it was not good news. As I headed toward the hatch to get on deck and help, the off watch was jumping out of their bunks to do the same. Two more loud sounds of breaking carbon. I was at the hatch at the same time as Magnitude's owner, Doug Baker, to see 15 feet of the rig left standing and the rest of it hanging over the port side, slamming into the boat.

We went on deck and found the good news, everyone was okay. Immediately our boat captain, Ty, went to work on getting the rig disconnected from the boat. The mast was trying very hard to put a whole in the port side of the boat and we clearly didn't want that to complicate matters. Rob and Eric got the safety gear on deck and ensured the life rafts were ready to go, just in case. Mike and I went to the nav station where we determined the closest port. It appeared we had just enough fuel to get to Ensenada. 45 minutes later the carnage was cleared. This was no easy feat and everyone on the boat did an incredibly good job. With the hull intact and our appendages clear we started the motor and set a course Ensenada.

A new watch rotation was set with two crew on deck as we motored upwind in the 25 plus knots of wind and 12 foot plus seas at 6 knots. 11 hours later we were at the dock in Ensenada. As we cleaned the boat up Tommy, the only new crewmember on the boat, thanked everyone for the good job they did and summed up his experience with the following, "I have done gybes in a buoy race with more yelling and screaming going on than we had during the whole time it took to cut that rig loose. Thanks guys."

At some time during all of this Keith had noticed the apparent cause. The backstay, which is made up of continuous strands of fiber, had failed. The only remaining evidence was the thimble attached to the hydraulic ram.

OEX first to finish breaks Cabo record



LONG BEACH, Calif.---Peter Tong and the crew of his Santa Cruz 70, OEX, finished first in the 2008 Long Beach to Cabo San Lucas International Yacht Race Tuesday in record-breaking time of 2 days 22 hours 50 minutes 9 seconds, eclipsing the 23-year elapsed time race record by 4 hours 56 minutes 15 seconds.

“It was a wonderful trip,” Tong said. “The first night was pretty rough and we made a couple of errors. But once we sorted it all out and regrouped we got back on track.

“Sunday morning we were neck and neck with Grand Illusion so we had to figure out how to distance ourselves from them… which we did.

“You know, I used to own Blondie [the SC70 that set the record in 1985]. I bought it from Bill Martin a few years after he and [Tom] Blackaller set the record. So I had a personal desire to break the record of my old boat.

“We had a great time sailing with a lot of old friends.”

One of those old friends is Long Beach Yacht Club Commodore Bobby Frazier who has known Tong for more than 18 years. “Peter has been working real hard on this boat the last couple of years,” Frazier said. “This is just a bunch of local guys… friends that have been sailing together for a lot of years now and… hey, we broke the record!”

Tong added, “We have a major problem now. We provisioned for four days and now have more food than we know what to do with!”

Finishing Tuesday behind OEX and also breaking the record were, in order, Bob Lane’s Medicine Man, Ed McDowell’s Grand Illusion --- which unofficially has first in class on overall corrected handicap time --- and Brack Duker’s Holua. Per Peterson’s Alchemy also finished Tuesday afternoon, missing the record by just over 33 minutes.

Chris Slagerman’s Peterson 68, Cheetah, will be the last boat to finish when it crosses the finish line sometime Wednesday morning.

Doug Baker’s Magnitude 80, the pre-race favorite, was knocked out of the race early on the second day when they lost their mast. Kevin Flanigan’s Ocelot also retired from the race early the same day.

“It was really an exciting race,” Tong said. “The wind gods were with us.”

Trophy presentations will be hosted by LBYC for all competitors Thursday evening, Nov.13 in Cabo San Lucas.

Grand Illusion first overall; OEX new record holder


LONG BEACH, Calif.---In a race dominated by Santa Cruz 70s, it was of little surprise that Ed McDowell’s Grand Illusion, skippered by Patrick O’Brien, was first overall on corrected handicap time and first in Division II in the 804-nautical mile 2008 Long Beach to Cabo San Lucas International Yacht Race hosted by Long Beach Yacht Club.

Peter Tong’s OEX not only took first-to-finish honors and set a course record of 2 days 22 hours 50 minutes 9 seconds, but was scored second in PHRF overall and third in ORR overall.

Brack Duker’s Holua was always in sight of the top two boats and finishing third overall in PHRF and second overall in ORR. Holua chose to take a wider arc to Cabo, losing ground to the leaders in the last half of the race.

Bob Lane’s Andrews 63, Medicine Man, raced to first in PHRF and ORR Division I, and fourth overall. Per Peterson’s Andrews 70, Alchemy, skippered by Viggo Torbenson, was fifth overall in PHRF. Chris Slagerman’s Peterson 68, Cheetah, rounded out the field in sixth place overall in PHRF and fifth overall in ORR.

Missing from the podium this year was Doug Baker’s Andrews 80, Magnitude 80, losing its mast early on the second day. Good news was that no one was injured and, after having cut away the entire rig, sails and all, they were able to safely motor to Ensenada.

Also retiring was Kevin Flanigan’s Fox 44, Ocelot, which withdrew early on the second day believing there would not have been enough consistent wind to be able to complete the distance before the Thursday noon finishing cutoff.

Grand Illusion seemed to be a nemesis to OEX and Holua, being mentioned in post-race interviews by both.

Tong said earlier, “Sunday morning we were neck and neck with Grand Illusion so we had to figure out how to distance ourselves from them… which we did.”

Sam Heck, watch captain of Holua said, “We saw G.I. the second morning and kept trying to stay ahead of them.”

Skipper O’Brien commented, “Oh yeah, we saw them and tried to stay between them, running a fine line between not going too far out [away from the coast for more wind] and not too close inside.

“We stayed on starboard tack all the way to Newport Beach and then tacked to port. At about 375 miles from Cabo, we took down our 3A [spinnaker] and put up the 4A because the breeze went aft. We jibed when Holua jibed and crossed in front of them. We knew we were pretty set after that. They ‘fagged out’ and went outside looking for more weather. We saw OEX inside of us and Holua outside. As long as we stayed outside of OEX and kept Holua outside of us we had a chance.

“We sailed our angles and hit our targets and it worked out well.”

Heck said, “We had a good time. We tried to stay ahead of G.I. but went wide off of [Isla] Cedros for more wind and they kept going straight. We figured it was smarter, but…[chuckles]. We didn’t break anything, didn’t tear any sails, no one got hurt and we’re all smiles at the end.”

Bill Lee, Transpac record setter (Merlin, 1977), and designer/builder of the Santa Cruz 70s, talked about the boats and what he believes is their place in sailboat racing today.

Lee said, “I was on Blondie [one of the first SC70s built] in 1985 with Bill Martin when they set the Cabo record.

“You look at the Lido 14s, the 505s, the 49ers. These are boats you can have fun on and sail yourself with friends. That’s what’s good about the SC70. It is a good amateur boat that you can take out with a few friends and race. That kind of sailing is more satisfying. Any bigger and you have to bring in the pros to sail it.

“That, I believe, is the singular reason the boat is so popular. It’s the right size boat before you have to lose your friends. Bigger is not always better.”

Trophy presentations will be hosted by LBYC for all competitors Wednesday, evening, Nov.12 in Cabo San Lucas.
