Airlie Beach.

Racing to Vietnam commences on Monday.

Fair winds! Which boat is yours?

I wonder why Phils boat is the only one missing the blue part of the Clipper decal, I'm betting Phil was steering and hit an iceberg or something  ;D ;D ;D ;D

You realise that not one person has asked yet who's winning the race?

They came fourth in the last leg and lie 10th overall in the total race.

Looking at the crew roster it looks like there are 65 people on board but of course a boat that size couldn’t accommodate that many I’d imagine so it looks like they rotate the crew with some of the crew only doing 1 leg and then going home, whereas Phil seems to have signed on for 3 legs and misses the next leg before joining again for his last leg, leg 8. A few of the crew have signed on for the full race.
