Again! “I feel like I've been teleported here from the equator! It’s really impressive how quickly we have done this section to the Cape. I really have lose all sense of time and space. I am only now realising if everything goes well this afternoon we will pass the Cape of Good Hope!” Charlie Dalin today. After ten days charging across the South Atlantic, mostly at near record speeds Vendée Globe leader Charlie Dalin (MACIF Santé et Prévoyance) had time to reflect before he crossed the legendary cape at 15:45:02hrs UTC this afternoon. His elapsed time from Les Sables d’Olonne to Good Hope is 19d 03h 43min of racing. It took him 7d 18h ​​39min to reach Good Hope from the equator. “It was so fast that I don't really realize where I am. We moved towards the South-East at average spees which meant that we dropped between 5 and 6 degrees per 24-hour period and actually crossed many time zones in a short space of time. This morning, I was surprised that the day broke so early and it is summer so we are not into a Southern Ocean atmosphere yet but it's not so bad because it's more pleasant like this", mused Dalin who should then cross the longitude of Cape Agulhas, the southernmost point of the African continent, also marking the passage from the Atlantic Ocean to the Indian Ocean a matter hours later.
