Hi all,
We are on our final approaches to the finish line off New York and are looking forward to another leg in the bag and a well-earned rest.
We have not had a fantastic race and have struggled to catch back up to the bulk of the fleet after an initial bad upwind start. We subsequently fell into a couple of wind holes that only plagued the tail enders but that is the ups and downs of ocean racing and with each leg we complete, the crew can be very proud of what they have achieved.
We will be saying goodbye to some good people after Leg 7 but no doubt will have some good joiners coming for our final ocean crossing across the North Atlantic. For now though, we are all excited about getting to sail in under the Statue of Liberty and enjoy the Big Apple.
Dale Out.
