The 2022 Race:

After a few different dates proved challenging to run the race in December, January or earlier in February, the race that first happened in 2003 was off and running. The wait was worth it! Epic I-to-I conditions prevailed starting at about 9 a.m. Saturday morning with strong wind from the north and a non-existent shorebreak. After competitiors rigged, de-rigged, rigged, the race was started at 10:05 a.m. with Ron Kern taking off as a port tack rabbit to the upwind mark at Hillsboro Inlet. The course was start at Vista Park, Hillsboro Inlet channel marker rounded to port, Port Everglades Inlet channel marker rounded to starboard and finish at Vista Park.
