Admittedly we’re keen to get to the finish now.
We’re slightly anxious
because the weather situation will favour
a comeback for those behind,
even though we have a good lead,
and there could be some mechanical issues,
but beyond that, they have an opportunity
to make up the lost ground,
so it’s a bit stressful.
There’s a bit of fatigue in evidence,
which is par for the course.
It’s a long race and things have got a bit harder too
as we’re close-hauled, we’re tacking
and we’ve had a fair few sail changes
over the past 24 hours so our sleep’s been disturbed.
I think the fatigue can be felt and the worry too,
but all’s well.
We’re well placed, we’ve sailed a good race
and spirits are high.
