After nearly 24 hours, Kite has held its own, currently in 10th place. The blustery conditions have favored Kite against the scows, which should benefit and pull away as the conditions change to downwind later in the race. All is well on board.

The RORC has posted a video of the start: Start of the 50th Rolex Fastnet Race. During the Clas40 sequence, you can see Kite in the mix. Look for sail number USA 144.
