Lines: 15 From: Dave GodwinThis was an early Arthur C. Clarke story. It was originally published in ( of all things ) Boy's Life, the Boyscout magazine. The story was later taken intact by Clarke, retitled and republished as the title story in his short story collection 'The Wind From the Sun'. It's probably gotten published elsewhere too, by now. This is one of my favorites. A race between solar-wind powered space craft, yachts on a race twice around the Earth, and then first one to pass Lunar orbit is the winner. I'd almost prefer that to riding the waves out to Catalina and back. But not quite. Dave Godwin Memory and Etc.
