The Snow is Melting...

Hey there Westward Fans!

Back here on the East Coast, the snow has started to melt, the sun is shining, birds are chirping and I'm getting ready to head out to LA next week to join the rest of the Westward crew for final preparation and the race from Newport Beach, CA to Cabo San Lucas, MEX.

Next Saturday, March 21, Westward will cross the starting line for the 800 mile race down the coast. We'll have six on board: Sam, Willie, Graham, Alli, Ric Sanders (Ric sailed to Puerto Vallarta last year and did a (very eventful) leg of the Baja Bash back home), and Zack Payton (Teresa's son and first-time ocean racer!). We are all very excited and, from what I hear, Westward is too. She's been busy getting varnished, polished, and she's even got a new stove!

Many of you have asked how to track us and, other than this blog, you'll have the opportunity to do so with Yellowbrick (the same way you did for Transpac). Also check out the race's site: http://nhyccaborace.com/home/tracking/ for more information.
