Joe and crew held their class lead from about ½ hour into the race, rounded the mark at about 6:00PM and finished at 3:50 AM. There were some small challenges with the weather, at about 8:00 PM on the return leg, thunderstorms with lightning and wind gusts over 30 knots added to the excitement. The winds stayed at 15-20 knots for the remainder of the race.
