ORCV Melbourne to Vanuatu (M2V)

Get me to the Cup in time.

The Brass have come in with some clear and bold messages.

"TevakeII and the front of the fleet look like they will have the trophies in the bag. The wind of the next few days, will mean fast and wet for Tevake on a tight reach, whereas it will be downwind and beautiful for the 51st Project, The Secetary and Turbo. The conditions for the fleet going to the South of Noumea will suit the likes of Turbo with fast running conditions. If it all goes to plan, the fleet should all make it safely to Vanatu for the Cup on Saturday!"

All right then - how did all the armchair Naviguessers fare????

Tuesday wind.

Wednesday wind.

Thursday wind.

Friday wind.

TevakeII's routing options.

Samskara's routing options.

51st Project routing options.

With many thanks to our pals from PredictWind for access to their information and Beta test models. Seeing as Kim is out on Samskara with the book, we'll run it through the office - just send heaps and heaps and heaps of money. That's all you need to know - boom, boom (Basil Brush).

Please remember, that if you want to find out where everyone is in the chase for the container that APC Logistics sent to Vanuatu, then please go HERE. Sked times are 4.30am and pm EST.
