Green Dragon Leg Five Day 27We have had a tough time watching the guys ahead pile on the miles as they have ridden a weather system we couldn't get to. We have been patient, positioned ourselves well and now it should be our turn for a while. The weather ahead is very uncertain and should provide lots of opportunity for those behind to narrow the deficit. I think any sailor should be nervous about rounding Cape Horn and I am no exception. It is pretty cold on deck and down below but it could be a lot worse. The guys are in good form and enjoying the downwind sailing. Ian Walker - Skipper |
