This time,... -

GS2: Day 30
October 10, 2022
Hello Sports Fans-
The big news from GS2 is that we are out of the Great Australian Bight and through the Bass Strait, which is a major milestone for this leg of the race. We are also now officially out of the Indian Ocean and into the Pacific Ocean, which is also pretty cool.
The Bass Strait was challenging in that there were many squalls that would disrupt the prevailing SW wind and cause us to reduce... -
