Each fall, the Great Lakes Alberg 30 Association sends down a
couple of boat crews to race on the Chesapeake Bay. (There's a
similar event on the Great Lakes, in the spring.) These crews
bring their own sails and race on borrowed boats against the
local racers. It's a team event; the team with the best score wins.
That doesn't always include the boat with the best score.

South: The Endurance Expedition
Shackleton's near-fatal journey to the Antarctic has received a
lot of press in recent years. This is Shackleton's own account—quiet,
understated, and riveting. It also describes the travails of the Aurora
expedition, intended to lay the groundwork for Shackleton on the other
side of the continent.
