Puma Logic crosses the line!!

At 04.03 Puma Logic crossed the Royal Yacht Squadron line, to finish 2nd in class, and 12th on the water, a fantastic achievement. Family and friends ventured out in a rib at 2am to find them in the Eastern Solent, and followed the yacht all the way home. Torrential rain and lumpy seas greeted the yacht across the Royal Yacht Squadron line, and champagne, beer and fresh food greeted them when tying up at the new Trinity Pontoon. A fantastic achievement for all onboard and the first person to step aboard the yacht was Sara Stanton, who was forced to get off the yacht early on Day 3 with Salmonella food poisoning. After 4 days in hospital and a week recovering, all is now well. An emotional reunion with Skipper Philippe and the rest of the crew followed and a few tears were shed! The yacht and crew are now safely ashore at our home base of Shamrock Quay Marina, and most have now gone to hotels to catch up on sleep and have a well deserved shower.

More news later today when jaguar finish – they are expected at 5pm
