From Facebook 2024,
"Sports Illustrated" "This year,
in his new Acadia, he placed first in a strange, albeit convincing, style. He
did not win any of the six races that make up the SORC circuit, but by the end
of the first two, the 138-mile Boca Grande race and the 359-mile St. Petersburg
to Ft. Lauderdale, in which he placed 12th and second, respectively—he
led and was never headed. By the time the fleet reached Nassau, with five races
done, Keenan's Acadia led her nearest rival, Tatoosh, by 37.5 points, and only
two other boats out of 72 had even a slim mathematical chance of beating her.
Taking 16th place in the short (27-mile) final race, Keenan finished No. 1 by
a margin of 22.5 points."
