The first fleet (IMOCA60s) start at 12:00BST. We are third fleet off at 12:40. Watch the action live - type "Cowes TV" into Google and follow the links to the Royal Yacht Squadron Line.
The tracker on the RORC Fastnet website goes "live" just before the start, so you will be able to follow our progress with half-hourly updates. The system is not infallable so please do not be alarmed if position reports are not updated.
Okay, we will try not to be alarmed if your position doesn't move!
ReplyDeleteHave a great race, guys. In the words of Leslie Nielson in Airplane, "I just want to tell you both - good luck, we're all counting on you."
Hugs & fair winds,
Chris & Alex

Richard, Big Sis is watching over you from down under. All the very best and sail well. Lots of love. G:)
ReplyDeleteHi Richard, just to say good luck from OUYC! We hope you have good winds (some wind? The trackers say everyone is stopped!) and you have remembered the ideal offshore snack, the carrot. We're sure Jangada will do you proud!
