Day 13 Position Report, Volvo Ocean Race

by Volvo Ocean Race Press Office on 10 May 2002 After djuice finished at 01:09:00 all seven remaining yachts in leg seven
of the Volvo Ocean Race crossed the North Atlantic in under 12 days. Even
though still a fast time, djuice’s skipper Knut Frostad will be
disappointed about another unsatisfying seventh place, which adds a meagre
two points to their overall points. The next yacht in front is SEB, now
three points away.

The crew’s last hope will be the two sprint legs where the marginal lack
of raw boat speed could proof less of a disadvantage if weather tactics
and routing is perfectly right.

Amer Sports Too, who retired to Halifax after the mast broke during the
first week at sea is on her way to Antwerp on board a cargo ship and will
be ready in time to join leg eight to Gothenburg.
