the winds are weak , the progress slow


MOD70 fleet now sailing the Med. waters 
The MOD70 Trimarans are sailing along the Spanish coast in weak winds. 
Musandam and Race for Water sailed that close to the coast that they benefited from the thermal land-winds. This has especially helped Musandam  to build a 60Nm lead on Race for Water. 

Still a long way to  go and the Med. winds may hold  some more surprises. 

The LiveSkipper fleet , got yesterday stuck in the Strait of Gibraltar and by only midnight managed to get thru, the first boats that is. 
Now in slightly better winds, 2kts sailing double the boats speed as yesterday :)
