Pen Duick VI FR (14) stormed into second place 12 hours 16 mins behind the winner and provisional 7th in IRC after 37 days of Southern Ocean racing.
Leaving Cape Town, Marie stated that Leg 2 was Pen Duick VI’s for the taking as the big powerful ketch is built for Southern Ocean sailing. But only after crossing the finish line did she discover it was not to be. They lost out to the Italians on Translated 9 who crossed the line 12 hours earlier. Pen Duick VI is now 2nd in Line Honours, 7th in IRC and 3rd in Flyer Class.
