    The oldest participant in this year's Marion to Bermuda race was 90 years
    old. Understand he participated just like everyone else. Think it was
    something like his tenth time to participate in that race. Not the same as
    cruising; probably harder for that distance.

    and competing in offshore races along the way. Narration from the
    ship's log very well written.
