He's also (more importantly) a good way ahead of the transatlantic record. Ellen will have a tough time when she has another go at that one! |

Well he did the record but then he fell asleep on the way back to port and the boat is now lost. News at http://www.teamellen.com/ellen.asp?artid=100 It's a great shame to end a voyage in that way. |

Such a shame As big tris go, IDEC was very elegant and good looking. All her proportions just looked 'right'. No doubt Joyon will already be thinking about a replacement and I hope it will look just as 'right'. |
