GREEN DRAGON inspite of three knockdowns is still heading towards the scoring gate. They also have a leaking daggerboard case. Inspite of these, Ian Walker says, they are focusing on sailing fast to the scoring gate than worrying about fixing the broken boom.
ERICSSON 4 damaged a headsail last day, which one of the crew member repaired.
For PUMA, when they had their first break to the longitudinal frames in the bow, two days back, they ended up spending 7 hours and around 56 miles to fix the issue. Faced with a second break to the longitudinal frame, Ken Read says it might take a little longer (probably as long as 24 hours) to fix.
Currently, TEAM RUSSIA, TELEFĂ“NICA BLUE, ERICSSON 3, TELEFĂ“NICA BLACK and DELTA LLOYD seem to sailing smoothly, compared to the mishaps the rest of the three teams have faced in the past couple of days.
