For those interested in blue-water sailing events, the Marion-to-Bermuda race is now in its second day.
The majority of boats have crossed over the contentental shelf off the east coast of the USA as of 9:00 AM EDT today (Saturday June 10th).
You can go to www.yb.tl/mb2017 and see the positions and advance as well as replay of all boats.
There is a Class Filter where you can select list the boats that elected to race guided only by celestial navigation. Use the "Leaderboard" tab and then select "Celestial" in the
Group: pull down list. Ten boats, out of fifty, elected celestial navigation. Double click on any boat in the list and their map symbol is emphasized. Mouse over any boat and you get its name and current position and speed.
