At some 520 nautical miles west of the longitude of Cape of Good Hope Charlie Dalin (Apivia) is largely matching the pace of the hard pressing group that is chasing him led by Thomas Ruyant (LinkedOut). And while Kevin Escoffier (PRB) has broken through to third this morning, his highest position in the race yet, Jean Le Cam continues to impress with his super direct course, averaging just two to three knots less than the foiling boats to his south.
