In consultation with The Race committee, the boat was granted a time allowance based amongst other things on the course diversion, the weather conditions and the time spent at the dockside. The stop in Wellington added to the time allowance of seven hours they received when they stopped in Gibraltar.

They have 14 hours of time credit that will be applied at the end of the race for the two unpenalized stops.
