IMOCA Open 60, Class 40 - Transat CIC - New York USA - Day 17

On the approach to New York, Oliver Heer SUI was slowed down a little by a light wind zone (165 miles/24hrs) but with 215 miles to go should reach the finish tomorrow evening. The last potential finisher is Clarisse Cremer FRA (L'Occitane en Provence), who had a repair stop in the Azores for several days. She still has 780 miles left and should also reach the finish line in time (before 21st May) to qualify for the Vendée Globe. ----- The race tracker, the reports and the Facebook page of Oliver Heer SUI.
