It was only a short leg of 115 miles today, but tomorrow and Monday are much longer. Blue FPT are looking good, but with a lead of only one hour there's plenty of scope for them to fall off the top spot.

The next five places are only separated by a total of 12 minutes!

Top thirty overall:

Class results after this leg. Can't hear a fat lady singing yet, and don't forget that some of the teams may have used more than there allotted 2 engines, which would make them a "Silver" finisher. Rules 2.2-2.4 - the same goes for any boat that DNFd a leg.

The RB was fortunate in having so many top quality overseas competitors, as without them it no doubt would not have taken place and Buzzi boats certainly livened things up and in many ways just like the 84 RB his boats proved their abilities but then I think so many other teams and boat manufactures also gave a really great showing, the Greek team seemed well prepared and it was great to see Dag Pike doing what he does best in the winning team at an incredible mid 70's, just like car racing I hope the marine manufacturers take note of the failure in their equipment and fix the problems

no I was refering to Sarah and Miranda in Scorpion Dubois - I know they are not in the same class but roughly similar size and power...

Absolutely and well done to everyone who made it round and especially to those that did so without serious mechanical failure.
