IDEC SPORT SAILING | TAKING EACH OBSTACLE AS IT COMES: "IDEC SPORT’s slow down during the night, (earlier today back in Europe) had been expected since they passed south of Tasmania. Francis Joyon and his boys reacted calmly without any changes to their watch pattern, as they wait for a temporary strengthening of the SE’ly wind, a precursor to another tricky patch to come this evening in the centre of the area of high pressure. Once past this final hurdle, IDEC SPORT should pick up speed once again. Joyon, Surtel, Pella, Stamm, Herrmann and young Gahinet can’t wait to get back to the level of performance, which saw them cross the Indian Oceanin record time. The clock ticking is still the obsession on board. It is still possible for the big, red trimaran to equal or be close to the time it took Loïck Peyron and Banque Populaire V to get to the Horn..."

Cammas closes in on French sailing win | Sport | BigPond News: "Not for the first time, Cammas profited from some of his closest rivals' errors on Saturday with Puma and then Camper (Spain/New Zealand) bungling sail changes in the strong Brittany breeze. Camper's error before the penultimate mark was particularly painful with victory within reach. 'I'm going to need an hour or two just to cool down. We had that race. We sailed 95 per cent of it spot on and then just let ourselves down at the end,' said Camper's Australian skipper, Chris Nicholson, whose boat was overtaken by a fast-finishing Cammas.
