Sydney to Hobart 2016

[jack_sparrow]

Loyal great start but need to enjoy their lead while they can...The skinny lighter WOXI will roll her on the inside by Botany Bay putting aside Loyal being forced offshore by the angle. Scallywag crew work must be driving DW off his rocker. The CQSDuck looks more like a Pidgeon. Keep an eye on Alive the light skinny RP66 versus the VO70's not just boat speed but their respective naviguessers approach to the transition zone tomorrow morning ...will be interesting. A queintisential Sydney Boxing Day day...Love it.

Forss's tracker shows Maserati ahead of WOXI and nearly up to Loyal.

Surprised I'm not seeing staysails

Too deep by a tad.

Live TV pictures tell a different story.

Live stream ended. 7 did a good job. Camerawork aboard the big boats was awesome.

I didn't realise the camera guys jumped off outside the heads & go picked up - I thought it was Go Pro coverage!

How good was it to see oats have to duck everyone else.

CQS staring to stretch the legs, 17kts now

Is she still behind the VO70's?

Blackjack is just staying in touch / dropping off SW

Footage onboard showed quite a lot of swerving onboard CQS - me thinks they still trying to learn to use the foils

All sitting on 18kts, must be into some current of more wind

And way to the south is the ghost of Comanche, streaking away at 20+ knots!

pretty much the same thing happens for the starts in the volvo. extra media aboard jumps off at the end of the inport portion.

Looks okay now:

That was pretty sloppy other than PL and BG. BG came out of no where to slip into second and is holding her own with the 100 footers. That could pay off in the end.

Really disappointed by CQS, getting knocked down in the harbor did not look good, Scallywag with the sloppy mark rounding and un-furl gave a lot away to WOXI. Not sure why they rounded-up when they were on top of Oats.

look at the replay..... 2:45 elapsed, CSQ lays it in the drink

 

[Car Ramrod]

What a bunch of jokers on CQS. Bunch of muppets.

The Channal 7 feed outside AUS was greatttt!!!!! They saved us most of the commercials and only showed 7 ones. brilliant. Spectacular. Who do I send a note to?

[Dark Cloud]

WOXI now doing 20 and a bit deeper than Loyal
