Amhas, the boat in [url="http://www.sailfeed.com/class-40-delivery-bermuda-and-back-all-one-tack"]this article[/url] is in the same class as "Dragon," which I see a lot here in Mystic, and who beat Amhas in this year's Newport-Bermuda Race. (I think it might have been the other way around in this year's Transatlantic.) These boats are like the Open 60s and such, but smaller and less costly based on class rules.
The story is about delivering Amhas back from Bermuda, and life crossing oceans on a sled. Let's just say it ain't no Catalina!
