The West is gaining ...

The sailors that sailed further west are benefitting now from better winds, direction and strength wise. So we expect Vibrac3 and MACIF to make gains and come close to or maybe even pass Banque Populaire before passing Cape of Good Hope.

The virtual Boats are also approaching the Cape, where the ice-gate has been shifted 1 degree to the North, because of floating Ice growlers from Antarctica.

My Boat Suratna, sailing in LiveSkipper is about to pass Trista de Cunha, and not like PUMA in the VOR to make a stop :) 
For the locations of My virtual Boats in LiveSkipper and VirtualRegatta and the leader of the VG, have a look at my Map in the TAB: "ROUTE" above.
