Tim again, with a quick update: The worst of the storm has blown through, with the wind forecast to drop later in the day to 15 knots with a few left over gusts. The fleet will depart Gijón for the 115 nm delivery to Puerto de Sada, at 1800h (noon Toronto) today (Tuesday). The wind is out of the west – on the nose again. Hopefully the seas will have a chance to calm down a bit.
The Race Committee is targeting Monday November 11th to restart the race. But wait… what are the wrinkles the RC is mooting? Stay Tuned!
