EDS Atlantic Challenge - Into the wind on Leg 5

Radio Interview Extracts:

Nick Moloney, Kingfisher. “There has been a lot of wildlife around, but I expect that we will see less of it now that the wind has picked up. The sea life usually dives deep when the ocean is choppy.”

Helena Darvelid, AlphaGraphics. “We are exactly where we wanted to be. The middle of the pack. Now we are looking forward to some fast sailing with a spinnaker up.”

Josh Hall, Gartmore. “Yesterday we were sailing right near Ecover. They seemed to get a wind break that we did not and before we knew it they were over the horizon ahead of us.”

Mike Golding, Ecover. “I think we had a better wind angle than Gartmore which is why we got away. It seems to have paid. This morning we are almost 20 miles ahead of them. ”
