There are sailing boats. That’s all I know. I don’t follow the sport.

There is a rain delay in the cricket, so it is showing on channel 7, but I’m not watching. I got bored after 5 minutes.

One yacht has already pulled out. Correction, three yachts have retired already. Scallywag, Rum Rebellion and Arcadia.

Leading four are LDV Comanche, Andoo Comanche, Law Connect and fourth Wild Thing 100.

I can’t say who’s on first. Too early to look at handicap performance.

Expecting strong favourable winds East of Bass Straight later.

There’s another race map link https://gis.ee/sh/

Called windy map. May need a bit of jiggling around to get details.

Winds currently strong easterly.

LDV Comanche is not a yacht in the race, it’s just a marker of where Comanche was at this time when she set the race record a few years back.

Ta! Stupid me.

LawConnect and Andoo Commanche neck and neck, with LawConnect slightly in the lead.

Ooh, this is exciting.

Seven yachts have retired.

Super close finish.

Line honours came down to just over a boat length.
