The 635 nautical mile Newport Bermuda Race was completed at exceptional speed by Black Jack 100, which arrived first in Bermuda in 1 day, 11 hours, 26 minutes and 46 seconds.
A spokesperson said, “Line Honors are secured! After an incredible offshore sprint, Black Jack 100 crossed the finish line off St. David’s in 1 day, 11 hours, 26 minutes, 46 seconds. While falling just 48 minutes short of the race record, the crew led by Ramon Vos and Tristan Le Brun had plenty to celebrate as they arrived in the darkness off Bermuda.
