Nearly there!

After another tense night gybing our way through heavy commercial traffic and even heavier fishing activity, Nasdaq has just a few miles to the finish of Race 8, and it's still very close between us, GREAT Britain and Dare To Lead.

The fog is thicker and colder than ever this morning, as the wind has switched into a building icy north-north-easterly after a light and fickle phase full of sail changes. We're hoping to get in before it starts blowing too hard and the sea state builds.

Looking forward to the spectacular arrival ceremony in Qingdao, then beers and/or showers.
Cheers, Rob.
