«I'm well positioned to the west, where the wind will be veering first. The high-pressure area is not that weak after all and I'll have plenty of wind to gybe. I got a good sleep last night. I thought that consequently I would be a bit behind, but it looks fine. I'll be gybing in two hours (at 15h00, editor). The wind will continue to blow at round 15-20 knots in the coming hours. I'm pleased about my position. I'm sailing within sight of Brit Air, which is just behind me,» explained Vincent Riou (PRB) to his shore team early this afternoon.
