The Express 37 *Dorado* won the ORR4 division of the 2024 Pacific Cup, a 2,100-mile race from San Francisco to Hawaii.▶ 0:31 The crew completed the passage in 11 days, 11 hours, and 54 minutes of elapsed time, securing the win after time corrections against competitors *Lightspeed* and *Recidivist*.▶ 1:18 The race featured light wind conditions, particularly during the middle section when a high-pressure system expanded and stalled the fleet. *Dorado* maintained a position near the rhumb line, sailing approximately 100 miles less than its competitors, which proved decisive in the narrow margin of victory.▶ 0:55 The five-person crew relied on experienced sailors, including a navigator and a systems specialist, to manage the boat through fluctuating wind pockets and maintain morale during the slow mid-race period.▶ 10:18 Provisioning focused on hydration and electrolytes, as the light air reduced the physical exertion compared to previous, windier crossings.▶ 27:15 The event is co-hosted by the Kaneohe Yacht Club, Richmond Yacht Club, and Pacific Cup Yacht Club.▶ 13:23
