A Fast Finish and a Record Broken in the Singlehanded Transpacific Race

Well, that went fast. The Singlehanded Transpacific Yacht Race started from Golden Gate Yacht Club on June 25. The 16 finishers began arriving in Hawaii on Friday evening, July 7. By Tuesday evening (yesterday), they were all in. Although overall monohull records were not broken (and no multihulls entered this year), at least one record did fall.

Cal 40 sailors Jim Quanci on Green Buffalo and Michael Polkabla on Solstice were #1 and #3 into Hanalei Bay, but they didn’t quite top Stan Honey’s Cal 40 record. The great navigator-to-be completed the race in 11 days and 10 hours in 1994. Jim and Michael sailed the course in 12 days and change this year — still an amazing accomplishment for 60-ish-year-old boats rated 114 sailed by 60-ish-year-old skippers.

OK, so no overall record and no Cal 40 record. So what record was broken? Not only was the Westsail 32 record broken, but all three Westsailors in the race, including the guy with the banged-up knee, broke it. The previous Westsail record goes all the way back to the first year of the race, 1978. Michael Linter set and held his class record of 16 days for 45 years (!) aboard My Star .

The new elapsed-time record for the Westsail 32 goes to Bill Stange aboard Hula. He finished in 14 days and 20 hours. Gary Burton, sailing Elizabeth Ann, finished close behind Hula; because the ratings of the Westsail vary a bit due to different optimizations, Elizabeth Ann actually corrects out above Hula for third place overall and a division win. A Cal 2-34 and a Beneteau First 305 round out the slow-boat division. Piyush Arora’s Beneteau Horizon was the final boat in.

A remarkable number of finishers sailed into Hanalei Bay in the dusk or dark. The first four finishers came in Friday night/Saturday morning, a challenge for the sailors finding their way into the anchorage and for the volunteers guiding them. The race committee barely had time to launch the chase boat in time to greet Jim Quanci.

Wondering what the overall records are (maybe you could break them)?

• The late great record-setter/breaker Steve Fossett holds the multihull record with the VLP trimaran Lakota. Set in 1998, Steve’s record is 7 days, 22 hours, 38 minutes, 26 seconds.
• Alex Mehran holds the monohull record, set in 2012, aboard the Open 50 Truth . The time to beat is 08:12:21:00. Remember that these are all singlehanders, and the course is approximately 2,120 miles (though that’s not necessarily the official distance).

We’ll have much more in the August issue of Latitude 38 . In the meantime, check out these links:

• Emails from the fleet on the SSS Forum: www.sfbaysss.org/forum/showthread.php?2915-Emails-from-the-fleet

Keep in mind that the times shown are in Pacific Daylight Time, not Hawaii Standard Time. There’s a three-hour difference.

If my times are correct, I think the first rowers from the World’s Toughest Row (Monterey to Hanalei) finished just before the final SHTP boat. What a great group of people converging on Kauai’s North Shore right now!

Jeff, congratulations to the rowers! I believe that the first rowers were spotted by the last sailors.

It’s official! The results are final and the overall corrected-time finish order has been posted. Jim Quanci not only finished first in clock time and won his division, but his Cal 40 Green Buffalo has won overall too. See https://www.jibeset.net/show.php?RR=JACKY_T004055182&DOC=r101&TYP=html .

It has been really fun to meet this wonderful gang at the skipper’s meeting and then follow the race. Big congratulations to all !

Small correction, but Jim Won in 2012, not 2010. Adrian Johnson on the Olson 30 Idefix won in 2010.

Thank you Ronnie. I’ll fix that.

HONOLULU (KHON2) — The 2023 Transpacific Yacht Race continues as boats race across the Pacific Ocean from the mainland making their way to the islands.

Check out more news from around Hawaii, Oahu, Kauai and Maui

The Transpac race includes 52 boats let out in groups of three.

As of Saturday, the first wave of monohulls from multiple divisions arrived in Honolulu.

The starting line of the race is near Point Fermin in Los Angeles, California where boats sail off and arrive at West End of Catalina.

After leaving West End, contestants embark on a 2,200-mile journey to the finish line at Diamond Head.

On Sunday, Dave Moore’s Westerly 52 was named the provisional overall winner after spending just four days out at sea. The trophy they lined up for this honor is the King Kalakaua Trophy. This is given to the team that sailed the best relative to their rating against other boats of different sizes and other factors.

The RIO100 was named the provisional winner of the Barn Door trophy after finishing the race in about seven and a half days. This trophy honors the boat with the shortest elapsed time in the race.

“I feel really blessed to have the opportunity,” said Jay Davis, RIO100 navigator. “The weather patterns were tricky and you just do as much homework as much as you can at the end of the race and then play your cards so it worked out.”

When KHON2.com met with Moore earlier on Saturday he said, “It is the ultimate team sport. some people will quote other sports as being the ultimate team sport but this is the one.”

The Westerly 52’s relief skipper Andy Schwenk added on and said, “It’s the people of course. And of course, sailing in the ocean is fun too with flying fish and everything else out there, whales. But of course, you do it because you’re having fun with the people you’re around.”

On Sunday afternoon, 19 out of 52 boats had finished the race.

WGS 84 coordinate reference system is the latest revision of the World Geodetic System, which is used in mapping and navigation, including GPS satellite navigation system (the Global Positioning System).

Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) define a position on the Earth’s surface. Coordinates are angular units. The canonical form of latitude and longitude representation uses degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″). GPS systems widely use coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, or in decimal degrees.

Latitude varies from −90° to 90°. The latitude of the Equator is 0°; the latitude of the South Pole is −90°; the latitude of the North Pole is 90°. Positive latitude values correspond to the geographic locations north of the Equator (abbrev. N). Negative latitude values correspond to the geographic locations south of the Equator (abbrev. S).

Longitude is counted from the prime meridian ( IERS Reference Meridian for WGS 84) and varies from −180° to 180°. Positive longitude values correspond to the geographic locations east of the prime meridian (abbrev. E). Negative longitude values correspond to the geographic locations west of the prime meridian (abbrev. W).

UTM or Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system divides the Earth’s surface into 60 longitudinal zones. The coordinates of a location within each zone are defined as a planar coordinate pair related to the intersection of the equator and the zone’s central meridian, and measured in meters.

Elevation above sea level is a measure of a geographic location’s height. We are using the global digital elevation model GTOPO30 .
