The lead pack will either break material or break free now... thank you for your update
Glad you enjoyed the update! It will be interesting to see what conditions in the Indian and Pacific Oceans do to the fleet.
Thanks for the update. More wind should make it exciting. Can’t help but think some of them looking for some calm air for s little down time.
Thanks for the Update. Soo thrilling to follow along... Not the best day for Boris Hermann &Co, but really interesting to see how the macif and the boats surrounding it will perform today.
The pace of the top four in the South Atlantic has been extraordinary. It must be so tough for Boris and the chasing pack to watch them separate away, not being able to do a thing about it
@@Sail-World Yes, do you think they have chance to still catch up somehow? Forecast makes it hard to believe.
Anything can happen! We're only a quarter of the way through the race. The leaders could easily hit light airs at some point, or have issues to deal with.
@@Sail-World Lets hope that it gets close - but please without real problems for any of them.
Tank you for covering the race with interesting news.
Really great report. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for your comprehensive reporting.
@@sailor5026 a pleasure!
Thanks heaps for the updates. Question on Sam's traveller it wasn't being used but the sheet was! Why do they sail the boat like this? As when I have sailed we use the sheet for twist and the traveller for moving the boom centre or to leeward. Does it have something to do with the self steering gear as I have never sailed with self steering gear.. Thanks again for all the work being done to bring updates to everyone all round the World.. All best from down under here in Australia.
Thank you again for your accurate and clear reporting. Keep up the good work. Kind regards, Eric (Netherlands) 💪🤩
@@ericpaulplugge thank you!
Excellent reporting! Thanks so much. How do we follow the info. / data collected on the ocean salinity and current at depth tool, or is that limited to the owners?
Thanks for using our Wind layer from our app. We are loving the updates!
Best reporter
@@ever4hue I think I've got a long way to go yet
Another great update from the Vendee Globe, keep it going Mark! Nice to see Savvy Navvy being used as well.
Thank you for sending through the visualisation from your ipad. I'm a bit obsessed with them!
@@Sail-World They are rather good! Thanks Mark
When they cross the freeze line are they docked penalty points?
This is in the Sailing Instructions at www.vendeeglobe.org/sites/default/files/2024-11/Sailing%20Instructions%20Vend%C3%A9e%20Globe%202024-25Amendment5_0.pdf
Section 6 is Prohibited Zones, and the Antarctic Exclusion Zone is known as the AEZ (page 3)
Annexe 6 outlines the penalties in a table (page 24) where an 'AEZ Entrance not repaired' penalty ranges from 2 to 24 hours. I think the Jury has discretion to alter the penalty to less, or up to DSQ, depending on the circumstances.
Can Charles Dallin deploy some special buoyies as well to slow the rest of the fleet down ?

Not at all interested in climate science, only sailing!
@@chrbdt4213 each to their own I guess!
Climate = wind = sailing.
