Ventura Sailing Club’s 11th annual Prison Break Results

VENTURA — The Ventura Sailing Club’s Prison Break started on Sept. 12 with the arrival of the eight participating boats into Prisoner’s Harbor on Santa Cruz Island throughout the day.

All contestants must start the race on anchor exactly where they spend the night, so choice of positions in the harbor is an important beginning to the strategy of winning. As is the tradition on the first day of this event, after choosing the prime locations to anchor, participants enjoyed a hike on the island as well as snorkeling, kayaking, and socializing with friends 

Results:
1st: Out Patient, Randy Alcorn; 5:59:35
2nd: XS, Harrison Cooper; 5:34
3rd: Camelot, Mike Adams, 6:39:30
4th: No Name, Lori Kalestad, 6:54
