Trans-Pacific
The Trans-Pac race of 2013 which begins for us on Thursday, July 11th @ 1 PM PDT, will have us sailing and racing the 52’ Santa Cruz, Bodacious IV, (shown on the right with the HAEA logo.) The course distance from Los Angeles, California to Honolulu, Hawaii is approximately 2250 miles across the Eastern Pacific. The Pacific Ocean is the largest ocean on the Earth and at just less than 64,000,000 square miles; it is about 46% of the world’s oceans! The boundaries are the North and South Americas on the east, Asia, Australia and New Zealand to the west, Alaska and the Russian coast on the North and Antarctica completes the southern boundary. This vast ocean is sub-divided by the equator into the North and South Pacific Oceans. The deepest point in any ocean on the earth is in the Pacific Ocean. The Mariana Trench, in the western part of the Pacific Ocean, is very deep at just less than 36,000 feet! The stretch of ocean we will cross to Hawaii from California is rich with sea life. We’ll likely see many seals, birds and fish of all types. We’ll be keeping a close eye out for whales as we cross their migration path, but this time of year, most of the whales have moved on further north to their summer grounds.
