Guest Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Crac a Jack is listed on the CC website as having a time for passing Flat Rock. That's pretty slick seeing as she's supposed to have dropped her rig between Rangi and Tiri WTF indeed. What's that about?? KM, I don't know who's leading what divisions (apart from TVS) but I'm pretty sure that the Ross 930s are all losing Knot a big surprise, as far as I know there are no 930's entered Link to post Share on other sites
Grinna 2 Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Snitch has TVS maybe 3.5 miles off Cape Brett but only doing 10-12 knots Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 What time does the record fall? Link to post Share on other sites
splashprincess 17 Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Alfa's record is 6 hours 43 minutes, so they have to finish before 4.43pm I reckon. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 What time does the record fall? Overall record, finish time 16:43.32, set by Alfa Romeo in 2009 - Multihull record, finish time of 17:20.51, set by Split Enz in 1996 Link to post Share on other sites
piebuss 0 Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 You can't place too much weight on the progress times on the CC website, especially if there are a lot within 15 mins of eachother. It can be a real pain getting through on the VHF in a big fleet. Also people's perception of when they are passing flat/sail rock can vary quite a lot.. Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 More from the Website Karma Police have called in from Sail Rock. Just behind Deep Throttle, but well ahead of Overload, and Orbit just on their tail. They have 17-18 knots, are two sailing, and it's lovely and sunny. Karma Police is sailing inside Hen and Chicks, but Wired opted to go outside, and is not too far ahead of the Micros. RanTan is the next boat ahead of Karma Police, who other than the boats mentioned, can see no other boats behind them except for M1. Link to post Share on other sites
