Hmmmm, how about this....(thinking outside of the box).....since the final destination appears to be Hawaii, how about they start on an island? Catalina island. It's just off the coast. There are boats/ferries that take people to and from the island daily. I think it takes about an hour. Those boats go to Marina Del Rey, Long Beach, and Newport Beach. Though I can't say how often they run. Of course they could rent them out and allow only the first 5 to come to the mainland on the first one at a set period and the other to leave 15-30 min later on the next one. Or they could have boats with captains ready to take them to the mainland and it's a race to a set point on the mainland with a bunch of boats. There they would have cars waiting for them so they could drive themselves to the airport.

Actually CBS/BB10 used Catalina island for a private/reward so thats not a bad guess colby.
Coutzy:
You said the rush was between 12am-3am.
Is it possible that they had the Pit Stop elsewhere and moved it? (AGAIN!)
Don't the lead teams usually check out around midnight/early morning?
WalterC:
So basically, it is starting in the LA area once again, for the 3rd straight season. Maybe it's just me, but this, along with reduction of number of legs, and ending in a place that the race has been to 5 times, just shows the race could be reaching the end of the line.
What ever happened to starting in great places like the Nevada desert or the Everglades, or a variety of cities like Chicago or Denver? Now it has been reduced to Playboy Mansion, the LA Coliseum (which was a copycat of the TAR4 starting point), or an airfield (copycat of TAR12 ending point).

So, why boats?

Something I read but, the boats can also be used for any leg of the race, I'm guessing here.

puddin, boats are probably going to be used on either a large lake or on the ocean. If we examine the known places already known for AR14, I coclude that the Salzkammergut adjacent to Salzburg and Phuket on the Gulf of Thailand and any island of Hawaii are the most probable places for use of a boat. The start of the race also provides such an opportunity.
