Thousands of others will be aboard Vachts moored along the backstretch logboom which has been described "as the "longest bar in the world.' The race,-starting at noon (PST), will be -run in heats with not more than seven boats to a heat. The final heat will be mong the seven boats with the most points collect ed in the preliminary heats.
