Photos & Results: Edward Cross Comet Race

June 20, 2023

Jack and Kate Swikart put their names on the Edward Cross Long Distance Race trophy following their victory in the annual race.

A total of 24 boats went to the startline, however  the race started with Stephen Dickinson, defending champion Benn Smith, and Maxwell Curtis all ruled Over the Start Line before the horn off the West End Sailboat Club for going over the line early in the Great Sound.

Swikart was constantly in the mix in the race as they made their way out of the Great Sound and down the North Shore, Dale Brangman and his crew Tajahri Rogers got a great jump and had boat speed along with Curtis and his crew Stefan Furbert, however, a cluster of boats offshore including Smith and his crew Damian Payne, Dickinson and his crew Wesley Tucker, Rudy Bailey and his crew Corey Bean, as well as Swikart made good ground as the race went on.

Eventually, Dickinson took control of the race, but just past the Oil Dock Swikart made a move behind Dickinson, and rolled above him and his boat speed was just too much for Dickinson as Swikart maintained control of the race until they entered the Town Cut Channel.

Bailey would cross the line second overall clocking 1:59:14, and another former winner of the race Mark Hess and his crew Ann Filbert finished third stopping the clock in a time of 2:01:00.
