If You, Being-here: You’d voice Your muffled roar, Batter shores - myriad shapeless mounds: Course, clean sand swept from Ocean’s floor. Yet Great White Gulls Go flying far and free Cross this restless, timeless, lonely sea.

This is a fantastic app. Rich in content, articles, blogs, team bios and more. Warning, when the race starts, this is downright addicting. Up to the moment maps and race details. To someone who is old enough to remember waiting two weeks for a two sentence update of any kind of sailing race, this is like being onboard the entire way. Bravo.
