    Last night was not good for me. I ended up with the small spi in the sea, getting it back out took me about 2 hrs, I think it is undamaged but the snuffer is in a bad way and I had some ropes wrapped around the rudders. I lost the halyard for it so I am going to have to work out a plan for putting a spare up there and fashining some kind of repair to the snuffer. In these kind of conditions I expect to lose a lot of time on the other boats.

    Jérémie Beyou, skipper of the monohull DELTA DORE, has informed Jean Maurel, the director of the Race, that he has had to decide to quit the race for family reasons: The state of his wife, who is pregnant, has worsened and has required the skipper to rejoin her rapidly. His sponsor and his technical team support his decision unanimously.

  • 28/10/2006 à 18:02:00THE ENGLISH POINT OF VIEW

    Mark Turner (co-owner of Offshore Challenge, with E. MacArthur: "I believe people do not realize what an outstanding event the Route du Rhum is. There is not an event that gathers as many people (mostly non sailors) on the docks. They come over here to watch the boats in an harbour that I’d compare to a theatre, and at night the streets of St Malo are so lively ! No other place or sailing competition can provide that."

  • 27/10/2006 à 18:27:00Ellen MacArthur in St Malo

    This is the first time I am at the start of a race without actually racing or with an entry in a race to come. In addition I will not even be in St Malo tomorrow for the start. That’s a bizarre feeling and I am a bit sad, I must say ! I remember that in 2002, I was nervous before the start and during the low pressure system, but I really enjoyed sailing the race.

    In regards to the start, it will be interesting to see how the new boats perform in a low -pressure system. I will be looking at their speeds and sailing angles without drawing any quick conclusions! If some of the boats seem to under perform, it might be because their skippers are still fine-tuning their manoeuvres.
