Alchemy, Mary and Richard Compton's new Andrews 77, lead the fleet from the Chicago start to the finish at Mackinac Island in the early hours of July 14. At the Manitou check-in
Alchemy had stretched to a 3 1/2 hour lead over the next boat and despite running into a windless zone preserved more than an hour's lead over the chasing boats that brought new wind to the finish. At the island,
Alchemy then quietly raised her 14 foot keel to a 9 1/2 foot draft
for a prime berth at the shallow docks. |
