Home at last
by Bonnie on May.18, 2007, under 2007 Tybee 500
First, an update on TDCYC: Chris and Jesse got hit by a big wave in some massive wave action about thirty miles out of Fernandina and broke both their traveler and tacker. Instead of heading for the beach then and there, they turned around and made it back to Fernandina. Not accustomed to the colder waters in which they normally find in Texas, they were pretty uncomfortable anyway. They put the boat back on the trailer and drove on up to see the finish at Tybee. Undaunted, and happy for the experience they gained during the week, they hope to be back next year.
Here is a quick rundown of the results from the Tybee leg. Photos will follow later as will the details of today’s leg.
