23:44:30hrs local time France (21:44:30hrs UTC) on a beautiful mellow early summernight. His elapsed time for the course is 10d 03h 44min 30s since leaving the start line –set some 90 miles offshore of New York – on Wednesday 29th May.
Between last Sunday and Monday Germany’s Boris Herrmann (Malizia Seaexplorer) andwinner Dalin were the only two solo skippers to break through a problematic low pressuretrough. As soon as they emerged into the brisk southerly breezes on the other side theybuilt a lead which simply grew and grew whilst all their rivals were left languishing in themixed up air, unable to pass the weather hurdle which was effectively moving east with them.
