Taz wins the Solo Division of the Lake Ontario 300 Race

Congratulations to Dan Pavlat, skipper of the T-Ten Taz, for his victory over 17 other solo boats.  The 300 mile race covered the entire lake.  The sailing conditions were challenging to say the least, with gale force winds at the start, followed by total absence of breeze along the south shore half-way through the race.  There were a large number of drop outs just after the start in a squall reaching over 50 mile an hour.
