WoW Vendee Globe Sam Davies restart Report #40 ENG

Reports today out of Cape Town say that work on Sam Davies yacht will finish today and sea trials will be conducted tomorrow Monday and if successful her crew will leave the boats and she will resume her sail around the world tomorrow Monday. She will not be part of the race but it will be interesting to see if the VG people track her on the official race tracker and she will enter the race field just behind the tail enders. In front of her will be Jeremie Beyou CHARAL who has just caught up to Sebastien Destremau MERCI after he restarted nine days behind the fleet. CHARAL is passing Cape Of Good Hope as the leaded APIVIA is nearing Cape Leeuwin Australia. What a race he is having and keep watching our reports on how it will plan out. Some boats are having problems including NEWREST who is going to Cape Town with a loss of all computers making it blind sailing. We wish Sam safe sailing and who know she my beat her partner who is now ahead of her in the fleet.
