This may have been some sort of record for the Volvo Ocean Race and Whitbread Cups combined, for being the most disastrous leg in history. Abu Dhabi, who never seemed to quite catch up from their initial damage at the beginning of the race, reported yet even more damage and decided to withdraw form the leg altogether.

Spirits are Low   All things aren’t bad though, as Team Telefonica has not only made repairs in a timely fashion but it seems the Spaniards have made gains and are all of a sudden nipping at the heels of the only remaining boat without damage, Puma’s Mar Mastro. Team Camper is making strides with the onshore repair team and are still Groupama Dismasting!anxious to get back out there and finish this leg.
