Many yachts are now beyond the half way point to Antigua. In fact Miss Tippy has less than 1000 miles to run. Having said that the fleet is well spread out with 500 miles between the front runners and those at the rear of the fleet. This is creating some radio problems and the daily roll call is taking a considerable time. It is good to read from the personal logs that yachts appear to be having a good passage and everyone appears to be in good spirits. The weather forecast continues to give favourable winds but with typically squally conditions from time to time. The sea state is also a little confused with a cross swell sometimes tipping the gin and tonics beyond acceptable limits. Richard Bolt is now on route to Antigua the hard way - by air!
