Windward Passage Keel Refit:
The legendary Alan Gurney-designed 73-footer Windward Passage is at Westerly Marine, with yacht designer Alan Andrews working to improve some of the performace aspects. Originally built in 1968, Andrews has been asked to design a new keel for Windward Passage. By applying new technology to the design, he expects to lighten the boat by over 4 tons while maintaining the same righting moment. Near as he can tell, this will be Passage's fourth keel and the first major revision in about 18 years. Also scheduled to be modernized is the rudder. In the 1971 Transpac Race Windawrd Passage was first-to-finish, was also first overall and first in class. In addition she set a new elapsed time record of nine days, nine hours, six minutes and forty-eight seconds.
