ERICSSON 4 LEG ONE DAY 16 QFB: received 1130GMT
Last 2 days has been really good for us. We had good conditions of downwind sailing with winds from 12-18 knots. During the night the sky has been beautiful, full of stars and all crew are really enjoying it.
We are leading the fleet at the moment with Puma really close to us and it’s been difficult to know how many days there were when we both didn’t see each other after more then 2 weeks of racing!
Sailing along the Brazilian coast has been great and makes me feel a bit at home, be back in 6 month Brazil!!. We are starting our head to the east and it looks like the next few days will be really intense with some strong winds. That will help us to run some miles and be closest to the finish line. Looks like the battle for the lead will be really close.
It’s midday here and our lunch time is getting close. Menu of the day is Chicken Korma, best preference from all crew. But we are all looking forward for a big steak in Cape Town!
Good winds,
