Vendee Globe

[Valiente]

So did Peyron and Stamm is out, also. The attrition this race is appalling, particularly among the veterans.

11 boats of 30 that started are now out for one reason or another. I've read more than once from the vetrans that the pace is too quick. If they keep pushing hard on the boats they will break. Now a couple of masts coming down may be the result???

I'm pulling for Sam, Dee and of course Derek ( CDN) with my name on the side of his boat.
