Vendee Globe Update
Published on February 20th, 2013
(February 19, 2013; Day 102) – Eighty miles off Cape Finsterre, remaining quietly patient but on a state of high alert due to the high level of shipping traffic, Italian skipper Alessandro Di Benedetto is content to wait until the winds pick up on Wednesday to propel him the final 400+ miles to the finish of his Vendee Globe, now expected to be on Friday. Alessandro is the final finisher, and will claim 11 place of the 20 original starters. — http://www.vendeeglobe.org/en/
