Just in from Phil aboard Imerys Clean Energy

Position: 2nd / Distance to finish: 15 nm

It’s down to the wire. While 1st place may seem to be sewn up by the new Lombard Lift design, the door is wide open on who will complete the podium. Adrenaline pumped Phil currently racing in 2nd is pushing hard to keep this place…

“It’s incredibly exciting out here – the fight for 2nd is currently on between the 3 Mach 3s & us! Lots still to play for – these waters can make or break you in just one small coastal eddy or headland, so max concentration required….” Phil
