The 2023 Chicago Yacht Club race to Mackinac was one for the books. As Mac races go, the weather was tame and winds were generally light. Aside from a few rain drops and puffs of strong wind after the start, there were no major storms, and once again all 16 36.7's crossed the finish line in one pice. Results:
