As Team Legato passed through the Gibraltar Straits yesterday evening, Warta
Polpharma crossed the finish line in Marseilles. TEAM LEGATO is now faced
with light headwinds, and making slow progress towards the finish, and are
now expecting to arrive Friday evening.

'Many congratulations to Roman for finishing in Marseilles. He and his crew
have shown great grit to overcome the hull damage and to finish the Race. We
hope to do the same on Friday if the winds improve.' Said Tony Bullimore
this afternoon.
