I was on J/122 Alliance during the 2024 Newport - Bermuda race.  Unfortunately our rudder hit something solid in the Gulf stream on 23 June, which resulted in serious damage and water ingress at a rate which we could not keep up with using the 4 pumps we had on board.  We ended up having to abandon the boat and were thankfully rescued by J/121 Ceilidh assisted by Archimbault 40RC Banter with all safe.  Some links here with the story:

• Rescue Video by Ryan Mann on J/121 Ceilidh
• WJAR News Story
• Video Recap of Entire Race by Kate Somers

I would like to create a consolidated timeline using the log files from all three boats, and the Yellowbrick tracker files.  The goal would be to create a time lapsed track of all three boats that could be annotated with times and annotated with descriptions / photos at the synchronized times.  This would create both static Powerpoint slides and a running video.

I have the log files from all three boats.  I need to get the YB trackers downloaded.  I'm looking for some tips on how to best accomplish the reconstruction with the multiple inputs.

Thanks,
Bill
