Race 8 day 11; Nova Scotia still in Pole Position!
We are all waiting with baited breath to see who wins this leg of the Clipper round the world race. We are all routing for current leaders; EMT ambassador Dan Monk and the rest of the crew aboard Nova Scotia, where it is reported that some of the crew members are having difficulty sleeping because of the adrenaline pumping through their veins!!!
Positioning themselves further North has put them in more favourable conditions as they approach Santa Cruz, better wind angle and faster speeds and only 275 knm to go! - fingers crossed.
Dan has sailed with the Trust since 2003, coming back year after year
despite a relapse. Eventually qualifying as a Yachtmaster and working
for the trust last year as a skipper. Funding for Dan to take part in
this historic race has come in the form of Philip Green memorial trust
and JP Morgan Asset Management. Dan is hoping to raise 25p for every
mile sailed.
