A boat race from Port Townsend to Ketchikan, Alaska with no motors and no outside support.
From the website:
RACE TO ALASKA
DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES?
The physical endurance, saltwater know-how and bulldog tenacity to navigate the 750 cold water miles from the Lower 48 to Alaska.
We’ll guarantee blisters, mild hypothermia, and the cathartic elation that comes from accomplishing something others would call impossible.
First prize is $10,000, second prize is a set of steak knives.
I love Port Townsend - was seriously thinking of moving there 20 years ago. I love the farm more - much much more.
