The 104th Chicago to Mackinac Island Race will break no records. “Il Monstro”, the volvo 70 is 95 miles from the finish as I write. “Natalie J” the TP 52 is just over 100 miles to go. A this point in the race the competitors are sailing past some of the prettiest scenery anywhere in the world. And at a speed that will allow them to enjoy it.
