The Bermuda Race has come a long way since 1906 when the start of the race was in Gravesend Bay when only three teams began the 635-mile passage to Bermuda. Last Friday afternoon, June 17th, 157 boats in 13 classes in five divisions got underway off Castle Hill Lighthouse, at the entrance to Newport Harbor, in the 44th Newport-Bermuda Race.
