  1. harrytom I am with you. In the public domain the perception that ETNZ choked and Dean was responsible remains. That is wrong and unfair given that GD called the lay day without consulting Dean.
  2. Seb Destremeau closed the door on this race when he finished today
  3. Congratulations! I hope Mum and son are healthy
  4. Guarantee reported 25kts and backless waves off Poverty Bay a couple of hours ago
  5. Borax which is apparently the same make up is available at Bin Inn
  6. Go the mighty Mull. Well done Rigmarole
  7. Conrad's going to be interviewed on Radio Sport after 5pm today
  8. Nice work Mark. A huge crowd for Conrad which he so deserves. He even managed a quick sprint ashore to grab a New Zealand flag
  9. Yay and only 4 hrs behind Attanasio what a star!
  10. Just over 60nm to go now nice breeze to finish on yeehaaaa
  11. The finish line is 20 minutes motoring from the harbour entrance
  12. Down wind and over 4kts vmg with just over 200nm to go now woohoo
  13. It looks like the wind and direction will improve for Conrad in the next few hours
  14. Good idea guys but he is vegetarian. He's still got the sprouts he's growing on board. Maybe he can hook some edible seaweed. Any thing's possible for Conrad
  15. What a nail biter. Is there anything Conrad hasn't had to deal with in this race? It looks light for the next couple of days.
  16. Upwind and light wind now but Conrad's got company in the slow moving department. What a way to finish your vendee. It's not over till you're over
  17. Woohoo 5.8kts vmg go Conrad!
  18. He's doing 3.6kts now going forward yay!
  19. Yay! I hope he can sail to the finish. He so deserves it
  20. Miracles do happen. Conrad will be interviewed on Radio Sport after 12pm today
  21. According to his ocean racing blog his primary forestay disconnected in over 50kts and his boat was on its side for a few hours. Another sail shredded. He's now looking forward to another mast climb when the wind eases
  22. Oh no another one down. Enda the Irish man's boat has been dismasted. Bugger!
  23. It's great Giacomo finished second and are likely to take the Tattersall Cup for overall win which would be tremendous
