Hard to watch... so close between the top three boats in the @IMOCA60 class in the @DrheamCup. Only a couple of miles to go, with less than a mile between them in drifty conditions. Go @samanthadavies @initiativecoeur We are hoping you'll stay in front!

Still keeping up with the front fleet. You are doing great @GoodchildSam Hang in there! Only 50nm to go!
Fantastic to hear @ATRacing99 has set a new world record - again! Congratulations!
After just over a week at sea, Alex and the crew will be arriving back into Gosport onboard HUGO BOSS tomorrow.
During the Transatlantic crossing, Alex and the crew unofficially broke the world distance record on a 60ft monohulls, sailing 540nm in 24hours!!! 🔥

It looks pretty challenging out there - it could be a long race...! @GoodchildSam in 4th at the moment. Keep following his progress here ➡️ bit.ly/2A5G36i xitter.cf/GoodchildSam/status/10…
DAY 2
6 PM : 9th place
Into day 2 and as expected it’s been pretty tricky. The wind’s very unstable so there’s always something to do. There’s a big split in the fleet so it's difficult to be sure how we’ll be doing when we converge. Apart from not a lot of sleep all is good.

DAY 1
8 PM : 1st place
Drifty start to the La Drheam-Cup Destination Cotentin. I had a false start and had to return the line again. Fortunately it got better and I leaft Quiberon bay in the lead. Now got 2 days to go to the next mark- Fastnet Rock. Mostly upwind. @DrheamCup

It was a drifty start for the 31 strong @AssoClass40 fleet yesterday in #LaTrinite in the @DrheamCup but the British boys well. @GoodchildSam was in the lead earlier today, and @TriggerSailing in 4th. @Phil_Sharp_ is currently leading. Track them here ➡️bit.ly/2A5G36i

Sailing offshore at night is a challenging environment. Skipper @mikefergusonIRL explains how the watches used during the Length of Britain Challenge @sailscotland powered by @visible247 made a difference to their performance at night. #TechTuesday #nightvision #Vendee2020Vision
