The Vendee Globe is coming to an end. Michel Desjoyeau has won in record breaking time, and in style. The remaining fleet have now all rounded Cape Horn. Months of sailing are coming to an end.
I have found it really entertaining, not in the least because I too have been racing around in the Virtual Race. I’m west of the Canaries at the moment. The Vendee Globe website www.vendeeglobe.org/en/ for the real race has been particularly well serviced, and the interviews and e-mail comments from the skippers have been well worth following.
I have so much enjoyed Sam Davies’ comments. She did a great commentary on ‘types of waves’ the other day www.vendeeglobe.org/en/newswire/8721/sam-on-waves.html - so true. For unadulterated commentary from Sam, have a look at Sam’s very pink website www.samdavies.com/gb_les_news.asp- (its a bilingual site, so if it comes up french, click on the Union Jack top right).
