'Technically, it's very challenging': Van Isle 360 yacht race sails to Campbell River
The Van Isle 360 began in 1999 when a group of multi-hullers wanted to see if it was possible to sail around Vancouver Island.“It’s very international,” said race owner and organizer Jeff Motley.
The 38 sailing yachts racing this year were straight into a pretty good headwind Sunday, requiring lots of tacking back and forth. “You know we had good winds yesterday , a great sail, and they’ve been predominantly upwind all day today. But as you can see, they move very well in this.” Finally, after just over four hours of sailing, the Mist from Seattle made one final tack to avoid the Discovery Pier and crossed the finish line first.
