Sailing Update Washington, DC

Team Washington, DC is being diverted due to crew member Steve Carrick sustaining an injury on board and needing medical attention.

Skipper Ella Hebron has been in constant contact with the Race Management Team and MSOS – our telemed provider, and we have been working to MSOS’ recommendations.

Race Director Dale Smyth has been liaising with the relevant authorities who have recommended Steve be taken towards the mainland. The yacht is heading in the direction of Busselton, WA, Australia where an offshore rendezvous may be possible tomorrow.

Further updates will be made on this page.
