Oh how the lonely hours at sea or onboard make the soul wax poetic, there is none other then the sea that can revive or expose the heart of a romantic. We who sail are not lost or lonely warped’ we are alive, living romantics who see the beauty of a rusted hull, or the glorious breast or stern of a beautifully grand lady when none is left but the barest beginnings or journeys end, the rib left behind on the shore of a failed voyage, the crying pleas of a ship too long left tied to a lonesome birth, the ship on the hard so long that the sun and sweet rain drained overboard the dreams that brought her there! Inhale the salt air that fills your lungs with the essence of life . Drink deeply and swallow the dream that made fast in the heart and soul of a wanderer, and granted you a birth” in the home of the elite.
Disappointing that Team Brunel continue to run hot and cold, Bouwe Bekking is much too good a sailor to keep making mistakes like this!! Okay it's only an in-port race but every point counts and they need to win leg 8.
bravo Mapfre!!!!!!!!!!
Min 28.20 if you race on wed nights and have an hourglasses spin, you know that feeling...
What was that "almost-tacking" by MAPFRE in 34:12 ?
Does Volvo Or Musto Or Scallywag intend to produce polo/t-shirts "Forever Fish" in remembrance of John and support of his family?

It's weird that the commentator is consistently misidentifying the A3 gennaker as a masthead code 0.
