Yes it was great coverage and the way Oats threaded the needle was awesome!
-
That is so cool! Well done
-
Fingers crossed it works better than last year
-
Going out of Whangarei use the outgoing tide
-
Alex should claw back some mileage in the Atlantic but Armel's got a fast boat, no damage we are aware of and damn good weather info
-
Whew! That's a relief less damage from a CP than a UFO
-
That is not looking good at all. Bugger!
-
Conrad's up to his tricks again. It seems his latest exploit is sewing a sail up the mast in 20 knots. He rocks that guy!

Bugger. Vincent Riou on PRB has now retired after serious keel damage from hitting a ufo. He had been doing an amazing job keeping up with the foilers
-
Very tidy! Well done guys

Willow That tracker's cool with the wind on it. What a fascinating watch this race is and to have 28 boats still racing after 10 days is a great tribute to all the hard work that has gone into them
-
There's a free vendee globe app which is quite nice. Conrad's got good speed and is 15th or 16th at the moment
-
Me too. It will be very interesting with such set up variation. I like it that a few guys are in there for the adventure of it.
How many finish will be fascinating. I like to think that Conrad Colman is a definite finisher.

Lovely job KM
-
Conrad's now on his way to New York solo and has a blog on Conrad Colman ocean racing.
He also has 93% of his funding woohoo go Conrad
-
Come on guys Conrad needs another 15000 euros to get to the start line. A few of us have made pledges. I have no connection to Conrad just watched his previous efforts and want to see him do the Vendee. He's working really hard to get to the start line using his own limited resources and sponsors
-
Sailing Anarchy have a link to Conrad's fosburit crowd funding campaign. He has 55% of his budget which is still not enough to get him to the start line in November and seems has only 8 days to raise all the funding he needs. He needs more euros and sponsors guys
-
Now that's a decent bimini set up BP nice
-
Well done BP that's a great step up from driving to Opua loading the dinghy etc. You must be chuffed your baby is only walking distance away now

Very sobering

Conrad's done a video dressed as Santa which is good for a laugh. He's growing in stature all the time with his variety of escapades not to mention the fact he is sailing really well.
