Barring some misfortune, it's still looking very good for her. Tracking |

Yes, she should be home by Friday. It's becoming very iffish. Things could go wrong, still - hope she hangs in there. On a par with Bruce Dalling and Bertie Read. (I know someone who has sailed with Bertie Read - apparently he was an unmitigated arsehole. Sailors often are). I dunno where Maroela Media gets: This has been done tens of thousands of times. Maybe they meant that, in this race, she was first around Cape Horn. |

It is a disgrace how little attention the media have paid to the event over 8 months. The problem is that she is white and a woman to boot. News24 is too busy destroying De Ruyter, protecting that turncoat at Stellenbosch and getting rid of Afrikaans.

No. The moment Curwen stopped at a port, he was no longer part of the race. Besides, even if he was, Neuschafer would still have won, because she assisted another competitor whose boat had sunk and so was awarded a 35h bonus for that, which puts her safely ahead of Curwen anyway. (The 35 hour bonus was not awarded for 'good conduct', it is an estimate of how much time she had lost as a result of the rescue). |
