Time for the Italian

The solosailors and their 21 footers have completed on third of their journey on the second leg, and Saturday was the day of the Italian Andrea Caracci on Speedy Bonsai. He has overtaken Yves Le Blevec and Corentin Douguet is following, writes 4ocean. But the three has taken completely different routes and are spread out on a 70 mile horizontal gap.

The leader Caracci has decided to take the route between the easternmost islands. Le Blevec the opposite between the westernmost islands and Corentin is taking the middle. Phil Sharp who was already proclaimed the loser is still climbing the lists and is now lying 20th.
