What a race! So exciting - we have just located Haphazard and Deguello off Friendly Beaches. They're well within sight distance of each other. When we first reached them they were heading in opposite directions with Haphazard on starboard tack, heading out to sea, and Deguello on port, heading toward the coast. Breeze was right on the nose at about eight knots. Deguello has now tacked and is probably 1km to windward of Haphazard. Haphazard seems to have more breeze though further out to sea and is moving quicker, possibly slightly further south already. Nick would never say but he must be rapt with the new mods to the boat - and the way they are sailing is just fantastic. Equally impressive performance from Deguello - they have improved out of sight on previous years! Slightly lumpy sea with SE swell here.
