Irishman in 'voyage for madmen' yacht race.

Yeah, very close, I hope she wins it, but it looks like Simon Curwen is going to piss on their parade by getting home 1st, despite his breakdown stop puting him in Chichester

Simon may well be first home but he had a stop-over to re-supply, rest and most likely had a proper barnacle removal.

Lost a lot of interest now, hope the bird wins it.

Looking very good fer Kirsten now, expected to arrive 1st at the finish on Friday morning a day ahead of Abilash.
It has been a very exciting race to watch fer the past 8 months.
Looking forward to Pat being involved again in 2026.

Is he entering again?

Yep ! He is signed up fer the 2026 edition.

I was taking a few notes along route and hopefully someday might make contact with Pat to pass on my ideas ??

Ian Herbert-Jones could have done with one of them last week !

He was Rolled and demasted in the southern ocean, when he was rescued on to a cargo ship he was supposed to scuttle his yacht, but seemingly he hadn't time and left it drifting.

They should scuttle it beside the other ghost ship on the Cork coast.

Delighted for Kirsten, a fantastic achievement, requiring a very strong character. I imagine one would have to dig very deep into oneself on a voyage like that.

I loved the sight of her coming in the les Sables d'Olonne channel with arms raised and flare in hand !
