Look at finishing results instead of fastnet rock.

So when they finish, according to the SI's this form has to be completed...

At 2:18 am French time, the PRB team was informed of the rescue of Kevin Escoffier by Jean Le Cam. At the HQ since the beginning of the evening, the President of PRB, Jean-Jacques Laurent, assisted minute after minute with the race director Jacques Caraës and the entire race management team in...

Hi everyone, Please add me also. Boat Name = Master Robin

Thanks for the Updates Tunnel Rat. I am happy with that given I crashed into some green stuff, went north for a bit on a wind change, and watched everyone reach across from the east while close hauled upwind at the end.

After running aground at the start for 4 hours while asleep I’m pretty happy with where I am. No idea if I’m too far west now but see what happens. Boat name is “Master Robin”

I don't think I have seen it mentioned since arrival in Palma. But at P&M website a further update on 3 June says... "Whilst the investigations into the cause of the loss are still on going, it has recently transpired during the investigations that the cradle provided by the yacht owners...

Sorry, I forgot to zoom in far enough on the chart again.

This is the best.

Lots of Water

Grab some carbon, blue paint, and build a boat. The thing would be half finished by now.

Vestas should be allowed to purchase or charter a VO70 to continue to participate in each leg. They could continue to participate "unofficially" like Pen Duick VI in the 1977 race. It would be awesome to have a VO70 to watch among the current boats. If a new VOD65 is then built they could...

Alvimedica is doing very well to catch up after the time they lost at the reef. I thought they would have been left much further behind.

I am happy to see that everyone is safe and well. And it sucks that the Vestas race has ended this way. As I am sure most are I am looking forward to finding out how this accident happened. In the meantime this is just a silly vid.
