(Mackinac Island, MI)- By finishing the Chicago Mackinac Race (289.0nm) in 23 hrs 24 mins 22 secs, the 80-foot canting keelboat MAVERICK owned by Sanford Burris and brothers Bill \u00a0& Bud Kinney set the new elapsed time record by over an hour. Previously, the record had been set 20 years ago by Roy Disney’s 75-footer PYEWACKET at 24 hrs 33 mins. Furthermore, MAVERICK also crushed the Super Mac Race (Chicago to Port Huron 595.0nm) record by 10+ hours!<\/p>\n
What was unique about MAVERICK’s crew is that two sons were aboard and of the nineteen-man crew, only two were pros. As a largely amateur, family-oriented team, the MAVERICK crew has mostly grown up on the Cleveland waterfront sailing a variety of J\/Boats over time, from J\/22s to J\/24s, J\/70s to J\/80s, J\/105s, J\/109s, and J\/111s!<\/p>\n
Finally, MAVERICK’s\u00a0 navigator\/ strategist was none other than your J\/Newsletter Editor- Stuart Johnstone- now fastest Chicago-Mac Race navigator ever!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
