Everglades Challenge

Best of luck to Team NORSA member Alan Stewart as he ships off to Florida to participate in the 2008 Everglades Challenge, a 300 mile unsupported expedition race in small boats. This will be Alan's second EC and both times, he has built boats specifically for the race. The photo below is from Alan and his team's 2007 race. This year, Alan and his father have built a Core Sound 20 in the basement of their Chapel Hill home and at this moment, are furiously putting the finishing touches on it. Alan and his father will be racing on their boat while Alan's mother will be racing independently. Follow their progress at http://sailnaway.blogspot.com/ (and check out all the progress they've been making on their boat since October!

Good luck Alan!!
