Estrella Damm crossed the finish line in Barcelona, having left New York City 12 days 6 hours 3 minutes 48 seconds ago. W Hotels finished 12 days 15 hours 23 minutes 50 seconds, approximately 9 hours later. The most difficult part is this race was once both boats entered the Mediterranean.

The W 60’s still have their collective foot on the accelerator. However I believe they are a little further north than they might wish to be. As the saying goes: “what goes up, must come down”. Depending on the weather, they might have boxed themselves into a corner. They need the wind to back so they can jibe. If it heads, they can work down, but they would much rather be freed up than on the wind. Equally, they will be sailing extra distance, which is fine if they can keep up this pace.
