Here we are with some really wet Wet Wednesday videos. First off we have the Vestas crew prepping for getting up on deck. Looks cold. Vestas led the fleet from Auckland into the Southern Ocean. She relinquished the lead today, but is now the furthermost south in the fleet.
Here’s a little video from the Finn Europeans in Cadiz. Singlehanded dinghy sailors may feel their abs and quads tightening just a bit watching this. For the rest of you watching the beast known as the Finn – be in awe.
