For the leader Charlie Dalin, and for second placed Yoann Richomme, the finish of their Vendée Globe does start to feel close. They need to remain 100% focused of course, and know the pitfalls that have befallen skippers before in the final phase of the solo non stop race around the world, but tomorrow could be their last full Wednesday at sea, for example. In a week’s time they should be well into the Bay of Biscay, and dealing with the final sprint to the line. And right now, although Dalin, skipper of MACIF Santé Prévoyance, is 115 miles ahead of Richomme, (PAPREC AKEA), it is still too close to call.

Even more open is the battle for fourth down to 10th. There has been a reshuffle at Cabo Frio, north of Rio. Short term gains are with the skippers who have elected to stay west, closer to the rhumb line, so Jérémie Beyou, (Sharral), in fourth, Sam Goodchild, (VULNERABLE), in fifth, and Boris Herrmann, (Malizia-Seaexplorer), in sixth. But while their gain may be short term and will depend on their ability to work back to the east progressively to find the South Easter’ly trade winds, Nico Lunven, (HOLCIM PRB), and Paul Meilhat, (Biotherm), continue their investment to the east.
