Colman dismasted


Recommended Posts

Bad news this morning, Colman dismasted last night, with only 700 miles to the finish. He's cut away his mast and sails but saved the boom. He'll have to wait a couple of days for the weather, then he's planning to jury rig and hopefully finish. Bummer for him after doing so well in an old boat. Hopefully he's done enough to get funding for a better one for next race.

Slow going for Conrad.

 

Still 250NM, He's running terribly low on food and electrons. And at 3-4 knts that still a bloody long way to sail.  

 

Breeze looks to die out completely over the next 12h, then build from the WSW for bit before turing back into a Northerly...

 

The battle will be tougher yet. I hope he's still got it in him...
