This year's Moonlight Race was atypical in that it saw big winds, big waves and lots of boat speed. The only thing missing was the moon, which didn't appear until after most boats had crossed the finish line. Steve Bowen and crew on Dream On put a big hurt on the spinnaker boats, and Bill Strauss and the Excalibur team did the same in the non-spin fleet.

Barry Campell and the crew of Jade (left) won the 2006 Admiral's Cup. This was the tri-fecta for Jade; now she has won three of the 10 Admiral's Cup titles. Finishing 2nd in the non-spinnaker fleet behind Jade, was Bill Strauss' Excalibur. In the combined PHRF A/B/C spinnaker fleet Mike Austin, Movin' On, took 1st and Chuck Eldred on Gail Force finished 2nd.
