Congrats, Cptn Dalin. good showing. 2, A lot of fair weather sailors. Bit of of wind hopefully weeds those out of the '24 Vendee.

I'm sorry are they ocean sailors or buoy racers? Canceling the route because there's 40knts is rediculous.

One of the Frenchmen mentioned 52 knots sustained. These people don’t have a crew, they are managing a huge, exceptionally powerful boat all alone. I don’t believe there should be anyone calling the race, but the investments in to those boats are huge and they are fragile

I have been sailing in 38m/s, those young sailors are snowflakes in Sahara, crappers
