And they're off!!!!

After a swim for Nigel to scrape those barnacles off the boat (yes, really, they made him do it!), the Peregrine made it to the starting line.



The race began with a shot from the race boat and a big puff of smoke.


Hazel, Laurie and I stood at the rail at the park and watched it happen along with dozens of other spectators, 3 helicopters and a small aircraft.







The Peregrine...








Last we saw, they were a dot on the horizon...
