All to Play For - Volvo Race Update
The next four boats to finish leg six of the Volvo Ocean Race in New York are tightly bunched together, with just a mile separating them. Currently Pirates of the Caribbean (Paul Cayard) has the edge, maintaining a slightly higher speed. Should the next four finish in their current positions, Pirates of the Caribbean will move up to second overall, just half a point ahead of movistar (Bouwe Bekking).
It has been a rough two days from Baltimore/Annapolis to New York and there is a possibility that some of the boats will take the optional two-hour penalty in order to allow their shore crews to repair any damage incurred onboard and prepare the boats for the dash across the Atlantic.
