Team Adventure projected finish:
Team Adventure, Entertainment Extreme - FINISHED!
21 days after Club Med, Cam Lewis and his 8 teammates have crossed the finish line at 9 AM 21 minutes 2 seconds GMT, accompanied by Innovation Explorer and a hundred or so following boats. They were under double reef and staysail. The maxi-cat is expected at the winners dock in front of city hall. After a few minutes with their friends and family, Cam Lewis and his teammates will go to the podium to receive their prize and will then do a press conference at the Village of Navigators.
Miles covered : 29773
Average speed : 14.97 knots
Duration : 82 days, 20 hours, 21 minutes, 2 seconds.
Warta Polpharma projected finish:
Those Fabulous Poles - in Fortaleza undergoing repairs
Dariusz Drapella: "Yesterday I spent six whole hours waiting for the papers allowing the boat to leave the harbour tomorrow. It's almost a miracle that we managed to obtain these papers. On the other hand, we have had a fantastic welcome here and received all sorts of encouragement."
"Otherwise, we're impatient to be on the way again and get back into the race, and battle with Tony Bullimore. We came to race and not to cruise round the world, and if our lovely boat is repaired well, we are going to drive her hard and perhaps attempt a 24-hour record or something like that."

Team Legato - 'the Survivor's' - 600 miles from the equator
The bad news is that it is not likely Team Legato will make it by April 2nd for the finish. The good news is that Warta Polpharma and Team Legato will match race to Marseille.
