No se salva nadie de la carnicería que hay en el sur camino a Cape Town. Los irlandeses del Green Dragon le han pegado a algo cuando venían a 25 nudos, pero parece que no ha pasado nada grave, habra que esperar las proximas horas para saber algo más.
Skipper Ian Walker, nursing bruised pride and a battered boat, described how they came off second best in a series of mishaps.
“I don’t really know where to start as the last 24-hours has been so incident-packed,” said Walker, whose boat hit something hard in the early hours.
“There was a deafening crunch and the boat went from 25 knots to a virtual standstill. Neal McDonald, who was helming, smashed the wheel and everyone else fell over. The crew inspected the hull, foils and keel for damage and all seems fine, apart from a huge vibration which cleared itself.
