Notes From Boats Day 4
Christophe Desage (via inReach)
End of D4 - ELMACH: Enfin du soleil ! Shorts, a bit of Gennaker, still catching-up on some sleep. Sea state much easier with .5 to 1m waves.

Minnehaha Continues Leading The Slow Ascent North
Big week-end ahead.
In the un-aptly named Pacific, Ian isn’t slowed down too much by his torn mainsail, and Jeremy has resumed his course towards Cape Horn after the front yesterday. 600 miles from the rock, he is a little further east than he would like but keeps a good distance to the Chilean coastline: 250 miles, or 5 times more than Abhilash at the same latitude! Unlike his Atlantic mates, he can count on accurate weather information.

A Challenging 3 Bridge Fiasco Provided A Bit Of Most Everything
The 2023 Single Handed Sailing Society's 3 Bridge Fiasco will be remembered for a number of things, the cold weather,
the big ebb and very light winds at the start, the persistent Tule fog that hug the course in some very dense sections and the late clearing
and building breeze that finally appeared much later than many had hoped for. But also for the large number of DNC's and DNF's, more than 1/3 the fleet of 315 registered boats. But for those who managed to persevere and complete... -

https://goldengloberace.com/live-tracker/
As expected, the GGR fleet has split into two as the wind kicked in: a group of five led by Damien Guillou and Tapio Lehtinen are heading west in 25-30 knots of south westerly and 3-4 metre waves, while the rest led by Pat Lawless, Simon Curwen and Kirsten Neuch?fer are heading towards the Galician coastline in confused seas and 15-20 knots of wind. Some electrical problems for Ertan Beskardes who has had a short circuit... -
