A short one because it's got a bit lively out there! It's been another rollercoaster of a Race Start. The initial excitement of doing 10 knots in the right direction giving way to the reality now of 7 knots in two directions of your choice, neither of which is the one you want! Fingers crossed this weather will pass and we will be back to our speedy decent south towards the warmth and less rain (for a bit). The new crew are settling in well despite the lumpy conditions and life on board Zhuhai is ticking over as usual. The fleet is still very close together and my guess is that it could well stay like this for quite some time!
All the best from the crew, Mike and myself!
