Baptism of fire - Lisbon to CapeTown

There can be few occasions in sailing when an Olympic medal doesn’t get you a head start, but as crews set off on the 7,000mile leg from Lisbon to Cape Town it was a baptism of fire for many of the new wave of young Olympic and World champions as they headed into the unknown. We asked some them how they were feeling before they set off and caught up with them later mid Atlantic.
