Grande Tours | 3/7/2010 12:40:00 PM | My initial goal was to win the Ultimate Florida Challenge; after delays on day one (ed.: Nick rescued two sailors whose boat had capsized and damaged his boat in the process), my goal was to run with the pack. After more delays, my goal is now to finish the race. Crossing Florida Bay was extremely difficult, the most difficult part of Stage 1. |
