Race 2 - Day 2 : A quiet start
They may only be in the first 24 hours of a three week race but there's
already a difference in tactics emerging. The main pack are heading due
West but New York has opted for a more southerly route and Jamaica have
taken the more northerly option.
In Race 2 the ten teams will cross the Equator into the southern
hemisphere and traverse the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone, commonly
known as the Doldrums, where they will need to remain focused on
keeping the boats moving in light airs before they get back into the
trade winds on their way down to Salvador.
So who will be the first to catch a flying fish....? to find out keep visiting the Clipper Round the World website.
