Hello,
All good here on board Garmin. Looks like we love to lose speed in the Elliot Brown Ocean Sprint, indeed we lost lots of places. We know why, and anyway, we are looking forward to have some gybes or tacks to tactically get back in the lead.
Everything is far from finished, rounding Tasmania, wind hole in Sydney, scoring gate etc. Yesterday the sea state was pretty confused, and some squalls were on the menu so it was hard to have the kite up. Now we have less squalls and are flying the spinnaker in a nice breeze and it’s sunny.
Last night the pirates saw a moonbow, which is a rainbow but at night with the reflection of the sun on the moon. Apparently it was magic, but I just saw a massive rainbow in the day when we did just cross the gate of the sprint.
Lots of coaching for new drivers, fun and happiness is here, all good. Distance to finish is reducing considerably so let's keep it like that!
GT out
