Anybody who has been watching the race on the tracker would have noticed that at the 1200 sked we were placed in 9th position. This is due to the position of the waypoints used by the race officials so it is not surprising that now we are through the scoring gate we have a 30nm lead on the other boats. Here is what the daily report had to say:
“Gold Coast Australia has reported crossing the Scoring Gate at 1121 UTC and is in line for three bonus points as the first team to reach it, while the second team to report their crossing is Geraldton Western Australia at 1440.44 UTC, who are set to claim two bonus points.”
