As I head to bed, the count of retirees stands at 29. Conditions have eased considerably with some on the handicap contenders making better time than the leaders. On 27 December 2015 at 18:46, David Lenehan wrote: > This time, as I see it, it hasn't been too bad though clearly > uncomfortable.

This time, as I see it, it hasn't been too bad though clearly uncomfortable. Wild Oats XI lost her main in 40 knots of wind. It's been much, much worse. In the 1984 race, 104 retired out of 150 starters. THAT was brutal. We got knocked down three times. On 27 December 2015 at 16:09, Joel Aron

Hi Dennis, Having done a few of these, I can assure you that it's a wild ride most years. It's just that some are far worse. There's a lot of emphasis on how bad 1998 was (six sailors died) but, frankly, I think 1984 was worse. The really bad years come around about every seven years. Sometimes
