TRANSPAC 2009






The Transpac 2009 was one of the most incredible event to see. It is a race that takes place ever 2 years that goes from Long Beach to Hawaii. There were three different classes of Sailboat with the first class leaving on Monday June 29th, the second class leaving on Thursday July 2nd and the last class which was also the fastest class leaving on Sunday July 5th. This race can take anywhere from 7 to 15 days and this year the Alfa Romero set a new record and finished in 5 days. There were a few member and friends that went out to watch the start of this race which was amazing.
Rumor has it that in 2011 there might just be a few of our own participating.
