But even though this race has been fun and interesting all the crew has a single thing in mind and that is finally getting to Portsmouth and finishing this leg. Some people want to see their family, friends and loved ones, others are looking forward to the final mini race and the welcome in Portsmouth, others are just tired, but we are all eager to see the end of this
So the comments around the boat are all things like "only two days now", "only two night watches left" or "just 200 miles to go", this seems to be our main conversational theme right now.
The only thing that could change this is that in our traditional Punta fashion we seem to be doing a comeback and catching some of the other boats. There's currently a big pack of yachts which are sailing all quite close together within a circle of 10-20 miles so it seems that anything could happen now. Vamos Punta!!
