Ken Read skipper of the new Maxi 100′ monohull racer hit the ocean running as the sails are on and sea trials have begun. She will be seen for the next week or so around Newport before she heads south.
The shore crew will finalize the preparations for Comanche and ready her to set sail for Charleston. From Charleston she will be shipped to Australia and begin training for her inaugural race against 4 other Maxi’s and the rest of the fleet in this year’s Sydney-Hobart Race.
