The Sports Illustrated Worrell 1000 article is now online.
I received the following from Mike Worrell:
[color]"The following is an internet link to the Online version of Sports
Illustrated Magazine (May 27th issue).

The story on the internet appears to include the full story in the printversion. But with only one small photo that is not in the print issue. The magazine deadline of Saturday also precluded any coverage of the verydramatic, storm tossed, last leg into Virginia Beach.
The print issue has four photos including a dynamite opening two-page shot of Nigel and Alex of Team Tommy Bahama. The others are a photo of Team LexisNexis turned over at Cape Hatteras with Team Rudee's Restaurant in the
background, Team PI Sailing launching from the beach, and a head & shoulders shot of Todd Hart and Davis Murray of Team Caribbean / Cat Fever.
What a grand, successful year this was for the event. We have already received eight entries for 2003, including a French Canadian team from Quebec, an Italian team and a South African team.
With kind regards,

Tim,
Thanks for sharing that! Thanks again for the incredible coverage this year. Hopefully I'll be able to gas up the "Sailing Shack" and assist you guys with the coverage and some sleeping accomodations next year.
