There’s a sight for sore eyes — the Mari-Cha IV, a 140-foot ocean racer, trying to break the trans-Atlantic speed record of New York to Lizard Rock, England, in under 8 days, 55 minutes. Sailing is like riding. It looks so graceful and effortless from a distance. Up close, it’s a constant cold shower and some guy yelling at you. Still, I like the illusion.
