John came in as skipper in Rio and has had a careful look at all aspects of our campaign. The team has gained much from his input and will benefit from his continued involvement. I will be happy to take over as skipper again after the in-port race. We are very fortunate to attract such talented new sailors to the team and I very much look forward to working with them. We will work hard to keep on improving, and hope that our results will reflect the team's true potential. We will certainly keep on giving it all our energy.

Im relieved that I got through another amazing Southern Ocean trip in one piece, but also somewhat sad. Every time I get to this part of a round-the-world trip I look over my shoulder at Cape Horn and just wonder will I be coming down here again If not, thank you Southern Ocean for letting me cross you safely and for those unforgettable experiences.Neal McDonald

It was like a slow torture of death. There were opportunities, we worked hard to make them work for us, but we just couldn't get there. We got back in touch thanks to a fortuitous weather change at the Horn, but slowly let it slip slide away from us. It was very hard work, psychologically very hard.
