Quotes

"The decision to pass to the West of Cat Island wasn't easy as we knew that Telefonica still had an opportunity to take the other option. And once we were committed, they made the most of it to split away 90° from our trajectory with a thermal breeze of eight knots, which enabled them to make headway a lot quicker than us. They played their hand very well and really gave us a scare! Right now, we have to control the Spanish, who we can see on the horizon as they're just eight miles behind. We'll really have to thoroughly anticipate the Gulf Stream too, which reaches 2-3 knots off Miami, especially as the wind is set to ease before the finish. To have Puma and Camper ahead of us will enable us to see how the current behaves as it heads northwards."
