LEADERS ROUND CAPE FINISTERRE IN SEARCH OF TRADE WINDS

With two full days at sea now under their belts, the skippers racing in the VELUX 5 OCEANS are finding their rhythm and enjoying the psychological boost of the first major milestone - rounding Cape Finisterre and getting out of the busy shipping lanes.

American, Brad Van Liew, remains in the lead, but Polish ocean racer Zbigniew ‘Gutek’ Gutkowski is hot on his heals with the first four boats separated by just 40 NM. Chris Stanmore-Major’s Spartan, steered a different course to the rest over night, dropping close to the Coruna coastline in search of better wind. The pressure looks set to stay low over the next 48 hours and the skippers will have to take the tactical decision of whether to travel the extra miles out to the Azores in search of better wind or say close to Portugal on a shorter, but potentially windless course.

It is clear that Brad’s enjoying the competitive side of the race: “Gutek is obviously pushing pretty hard but we’re all getting to know each other and you have to just keep sailing and not think about it too much.”
Although he is in the lead, Brad is not having the most easy time of things, he has been unwell since before the start and has managed hardly any sleep since starting on Sunday 17th.

He said: “I have had a couple of 20 minute naps but that’s about it. I can race the boat and I can do all the physical stuff but my head still feels pretty stuffed up and my throat is very sore.”
Brad has had to make repairs to his hydro-generator: “Ironically my super-duper, eco-friendly hydro-generator picked up a trash bag which got wrapped around it and broke the system for holding it down, so I have been trying to find a new way to hold it down.” At least Brad managed to do his bit for the environment: “You’ll be pleased to know I did manage to retrieve the trash bag….”

The battle between Gutek and Brad shows no signs of calming down, and Gutek who’s boat Operon is the oldest of the fleet, and who’s solo offshore sailing is relatively untested compared to Brad, doesn’t intend to give him a moments peace: “I saw Brad not long ago, we were sailing together side by side with about 2 miles distance between. Later on we both got into a no-wind pattern, he managed better with it so he went. His boat is very much faster than mine, so I am glad how I am doing now” said Gutek.

The highly competitive Pole seems relaxed despite also having slept only a little, with his focus squarely on going faster: “I didn’t get my proper rhythm yet. There are too many things around, a big shipping traffic, I have to be very careful. The weather situation also needs constant reconsidering and I don’t want to miss any chance to go faster than now. That’s why I don’t sleep too much, one hour non-stop was my best.” Said Gutek.

Canadian, Derek Hatfield is looking forward to the temperature getting warmer but frustrated with his speed: ” I’m a bit disappointed with my position since the start. I can’t seem to sleep too much, and the wind is so light that you have to concentrate all the time on the weather and keeping the boat going.”

However he recognises that it is still very early on in the sprint to Cape Town: “It’s the start, so everybody is pushing hard and we’ll all settle down into a routine. It’s only day two, which is really hard to believe as it feels like I’ve been at sea for at least five days!”

Meanwhile Belgian Skipper Christophe Bullens has arrived back in La Rochelle aboard Five Oceans of Smiles Too having completed a 48 hour mini-qualification sail, to test his new boat and satisfy the Race Management of his ability to sail it.

“It’s a very good boat. The sails are good and the boat is very fast. I have a few jobs to do and I have to learn her a bit but that will be okay.” He said.

Christophe aims to set off on Friday morning and the fleet of five will continue on their 7,500 NM sprint to Cape Town where they are expected to arrive from mid-November.

The VELUX 5 OCEANS, run by Clipper Ventures PLC, is the longest running solo round the world race, and has 28 years of rich heritage as the BOC Challenge and then the Around Alone. This edition features five ocean sprints over nine months. After leaving from La Rochelle on October 17th the fleet now head to Cape Town, the race will then take in Wellington in New Zealand, Salvador in Brazil and Charleston in the US before returning back across the Atlantic to France.

BRAD VAN LIEW RELISHES ‘TOP GUN’ DOGFIGHT WITH ‘MAVERICK’ GUTEK

“You know in the movie Top Gun when Tom Cruise’s character Maverick goes to Top Gun and dog fights with the old, salty war proven pilot Viper?”

American yachtsman Brad Van Liew has taken to using film comparisons to describe his tussle with Polish solo sailor Zbigniew ‘Gutek’ Gutkowski at the head of the VELUX 5 OCEANS fleet. “Viper’s trying to take Maverick out nice and easy but Maverick won’t let go, and Viper thinks ‘damn this kid is good’. That’s kinda the way I feel about Gutek. I’m like ‘where the hell did he come from?’ It’s awesome. I didn’t come here to mess around so if he wants a boat race let’s get it on.”

It’s day four of the VELUX 5 OCEANS and with 700 of 7,000 nautical miles sailed the competition is hotting up. Gutek led the fleet over the start line on Sunday but was caught shortly after by Brad. For just under three days the 42-year-old was out in front in his Eco 60 yacht Le Pingouin as the fleet pushed their way out of the notorious Bay of Biscay, but Gutek, a former champion dinghy sailor, has pushed his boat Operon Racing hard and stole an overnight lead of nine nautical miles. Both skippers have opted to head west away from land in search of breeze. Derek Hatfield and Chris Stanmore-Major have both been slowed by lighter breezes, allowing the leading pair to make more ground.

It’s a battle that Brad Van Liew, back in a singlehanded ocean yacht race for the first time in eight years, is relishing. This morning he was blasting along at 15 knots in 19 knots of breeze in perfect sailing conditions headed for the Azores off the coast of Portugal. “I’ve made three sail changes in the last 24 hours just to make sure I don’t let Gutek out of my sight,” he said. “It’s been a really rough 36 hours because I waited so late to commit to the right. I knew it was going to be a lot of work. I’m hauling ass now though. Gutek’s got me by a few miles at the moment but I’m pretty comfortable with where I’m at because no-one was able to get away from me completely.”

Meanwhile Gutek has been pushing Operon Racing, the oldest boat in the fleet, hard into the centre of a low pressure system which promises to bring up to 40 knots of wind. Gutek’s aggressive tactics have paid off but have not been without consequence. The 36-year-old from Gdansk had to climb the mast yesterday to fix a broken spinnaker halyard, a task which took more than two hours. “The wind was some 20 knots, not a lot, so up I went,” he said. “The boat was sailing with a full main and a spinnaker. Suddenly she went up to the wind, heeled some 50 degrees. Fortunately the self-steering gear didn’t switch off. I was feeling like a rodeo rider for at least minutes - I had some really hard moments on the top of the mast.”

Canadian Derek Hatfield was 100 nautical miles behind Gutek at the last position report, on the same route as the Pole. The 57-year-old’s speed has been hampered by light airs over the past few days and he has been experimenting with sail combinations trying to find the optimum set up for his Eco 60 yacht Active House. “I don’t have the boat totally sorted for speed,” he said. “The boat has great potential but I just haven’t found it yet. These downwind conditions are not ideal for this boat because it’s a little bit underpowered. I’m finding it a bit of a struggle to get downwind using the Code Zero and the spinnaker but there’s just not enough wind right now. I haven’t had a lot of downwind experience in this boat but I’m starting to get it on now and finally come up to speed.”

After a tough few days, Derek, who completed the VELUX 5 OCEANS in 2003 when it was known as the Around Alone, is finally getting into a rhythm. “Yesterday was the first day that it started to feel comfortable, and today it’s even more so,” he said. “It takes a while because you go through that process of being on land and you’re pushing to get the boat ready and you push right through to the start line. Once you start it’s kind of a huge adrenaline let down. It’s a huge physical transition.”

Belgian ocean racer Christophe Bullens will leave La Rochelle tomorrow afternoon after finishing his final preparations to new yacht Five Oceans of Smiles too. Christophe already sailed a 48-hour qualification passage in the yacht, a replacement for his original boat Five Oceans of Smiles which dismasted on the way to La Rochelle two weeks before the race start.

"Gutek is attacking, he's very aggressive and that's good,” Christophe said, eying up his competition. “It is great for the race. We will have to see what Gutek does to hold on to the lead. Although Derek is a bit behind he is in a good position. He’s not pushing too hard and that could be better in the long run.”

One thing is for sure – with more than 6,000 nautical miles to go to Cape Town and the feared Doldrums to pass, the VELUX 5 OCEANS race is only just beginning.

The VELUX 5 OCEANS, run by Clipper Ventures PLC, is the longest running solo round the world race, and has 28 years of rich heritage as the BOC Challenge and then the Around Alone.

BRAD VAN LIEW'S LE PINGOUN KNOCKED FLAT IN FIRST RACE SCARE




AMERICAN ocean racer Brad Van Liew had his first scare of the VELUX 5 OCEANS just days into the first ocean sprint when his yacht Le Pingouin was knocked flat in the Atlantic.

Brad had been resting in his bunk with Le Pingouin travelling at 20 knots when the power to his autopilot, the device that steers the boat, failed, forcing the boat to crash gybe – an involuntary movement when the wind changes direction suddenly forcing the boat’s sails to move violently onto the other side of the boat. Le Pingouin was knocked 90 degrees onto her side, her sails flat to the water and Brad was thrown from his bunk.

The 42-year-old, along with Polish ocean racer Zbigniew ‘Gutek’ Gutkowski and Canadian Derek Hatfied, opted to sail west towards the Azores in search of more wind – and they found it in abundance, with some gusts hitting 45 knots. When his boat was knocked flat Brad, a very experienced solo sailor who has been round the world singlehanded twice before, immediately feared the worst, reaching for Le Pingouin’s liferaft in case her keel had fallen off.

“I had just crawled into my bunk for a much deserved and long awaited nap,” he explained. “I was just dozing off when the autopilot shut off due to a lack of power. The boat crashed into a gybe. I was sleeping on the high side and when you crash gybe you end up on the low side. A few things got tossed round the cabin. The boat laid so flat in the water that my first reaction was to reach for the liferaft – I thought the keel had fallen off and we were rolling over. I didn’t know how serious it was but it was so violent, the way it crashed and laid flat. It didn’t seem like it should be that violent.

“My initial thought before I went on deck was that something really serious had happened. Then it stopped and the boat didn’t roll over and I realised it wasn’t that the keel had gone. By the time I got on deck and was alert enough to look at what was going on I realised the boat had crash-gybed, but I didn’t know why. Turns out it was just a mismanagement of power on the boat and it caused a low voltage situation – that was the culprit. I can’t blame anyone else but myself!

“My approach to these things is to just take time t think about the situation, don’t just go running into it. I assessed the situation for about 30 seconds before I did anything, and we were laid flat for about five minutes in total. The good news is the boat appears to be ok, and I’m ok.”

Race leader Gutek was also caught out last night, this time by a freak gust of 45 knots hitting Operon Racing as she ploughed through 7-8-metre seas at 22 knots.

“I had a lot work with sail changes, and after all I decided to put up a little spinnaker,” he said. “And suddenly it came: a burst of 45 knots, huge waves - the boat started to fly. I just asked myself how to get this sail down? Boat speed was a steady 22 knots, like driving F1 on a big highway full speed waiting for something to go wrong… So I said to myself – Ok, let’s try to get it down, otherwise it will fly away or I will have to cut it out down. What else could I do? Thankfully I finally I managed it.”

Meanwhile ocean racer Derek Hatfield has been reeling in the VELUX 5 OCEANS front runners after putting in the best performance of the last 24 hours. After a frustrating start for the 57-year-old which saw him struggle to get his Eco 60 yacht Active House into a groove, Derek has been clawing back places sailing the furthest out of any of the skippers in the 24 hours from 12pm UTC yesterday.

Active House averaged nine knots and sailed a total of 216.8 nautical miles over that 24 hour period, reducing the distance between Derek and Gutek by 27 nautical miles to just 75.3 nautical miles. Polish solo sailor Gutek sailed 189.5 nautical miles during the time period while Briton Chris Stanmore-Major, stuck in light airs off the coast of Spain, managed just 67.8 nautical miles.

CSM, skipper of Spartan, chose to hug the Spanish coast taking a more direct route to Cape Town. The move seemed to pay off when hecut inside the fleet and jumped three places into second position. While the others went west searching for wind, CSM chose to stay put. Two days of high pressure and little wind has cost him two places and he has slipped to fourth place.

“I managed to drag myself out of it yesterday and got some reasonable breeze,” he said. “I had some decent speeds out of the boat and was making my way south on the course that I wanted, about 220 degrees, and then about 4am this morning the wind just completely disappeared. Now there’s no wind at all. As I read it now on the dial there is 0.5 of a knot of wind. The boat is just struggling forward at 0.2 knots. I’ve got the boat healed over using the canting keel so the sails take on some kind of shape but as I speak the sails are flapping uselessly and my flags are hanging straight down. We are going absolutely nowhere.”

Despite his lack of progress, the latest position report placed CSM just 225 miles behind Gutek. The 33-year-old was remaining positive about his position while awaiting the forecasted breeze to fill in.

“I’ve been in this situation before and it is frustrating but it’s also an opportunity to jobs on the boat which require a level deck,” he said. “If you started to get too worried about it and started to count the miles the other guys are dragging away from me it would be very worrying. The other guys took a massive detour off that route to get the good breeze and all credit to them, they have done a really good job of it. But when the breeze starts to fill back in in the next 12 hours it will come in the same for all of us and I am on that inside line, the straightest possible route. I’m hoping I can drag some of the miles back. We shall see, but it’s not all over yet, we’re only a few hundred miles into it and there’s still a long way to go.”

Christophe Bullens had hoped to set sail from La Rochelle at 5pm afternoon but decided to delay his departure by 12 hours to finish some work to the electronics onboard Five Oceans of Smiles too. He has more than 900 miles to catch up if he is to overtake Gutek – but with ocean racing, anything can happen!

48 HOURS OF DRAMA ON THE SEAS FOR CHRIS STANMORE-MAJOR IN THE VELUX 5 OCEANS


IT’S been a baptism of fire for British solo sailor Chris Stanmore-Major in his first ever singlehanded race after he was struck down with problems while blasting along at more than 20 knots.

After a run of frustrating days becalmed off the Portuguese coast last week, the 33-year-old had finally been enjoying fast sailing in fresh conditions through the Canary Islands. CSM had hoped to use the favourable conditions to claw back some of the 400 miles separating him from race leader Brad Van Liew.

But disaster struck around 8am UTC when the fitting holding the massive spinnaker to the front of his yacht Spartan shattered and the giant sail flew up in the air, attached only by one rope at the top of the 28-metre high mast. It was the second time the fitting had broken in two days.

“I was coming down the eastern side of Gran Canaria with the reacher and the full main up,” CSM reported this morning. “I thought I had a good opportunity to get some distance back on the other guys, I was hooning along at 18 to 20 knots. Everything was fine and I was just starting to think I have to quieten all this down a bit, it was just getting a little bit too much. Just as I was thinking that a massive gust came off the top of Gran Canaria and it just floored the boat. The main powered up and we rounded up into the wind. At the same time the tack fitting on the furler, the bit that holds the reacher onto the bowsprit, gave way and the sail carried off into the sky, attached now only by the sheets and the halyard.”

The incident caused substantial damage to 60ft Spartan. Several stanchions – metal rods that run down the length of the yacht – were broken off and one of the ropes holding up the sail cut into the deck of the boat. CSM was then left with the dilemma of retrieving the sail, flying like an enormous kite from the top of the mast.

“I managed to slowly ease it down and I got the sail to drop into the water and then pass down the starboard side and then stream out behind the boat,” he explained. “Using a combination of halyard height and boat speed I slowed the boat down and increased the speed of the sail in the water until the sail caught up with the boat and I could put a line round it. I’ve got to get it out of the water and onboard. In the sail loft it’s 70-80 kilos of deadweight. Now it’s full of water and the boat is still moving just from the windage on the mast – it’s an absolute pig. It looks like my opportunity to catch up with the other guys just fizzled out and instead today has become another frustrating day of problems and going slow.”

CSM added: “There have been times since then where I have thought ‘I have no idea how to do this’. But you just look at the problem and really think about it and try to think of some smart way of using the bits and bobs that you’ve got to help solve the problem. The race is round the world, not just to Cape Town.”

CSM is not the only skipper to have encountered testing conditions. Brad Van Liew, at the head of the fleet, suffered his second knockdown in just four days after being hit by a freak gust. Brad, leading second-placed Zbigniew ‘Gutek’ Gutkowski by 43 nautical miles according to the 12pm UTC position report, has been sailing in a low pressure system for several days now that has brought big seas and strong winds.

“The seas are so confused that the autopilot just can’t steer,” the 42-year-old American said. “The wind picked up to 40 knots and it was just like ‘bam’ and the boat was on its side. I am so tired of this low pressure, it’s unbelievable.”

Brad’s westerly course appears to be paying off for the time being, with his yacht Le Pingouin clocking the fastest average speed of the fleet in the last 24 hours at 12.9 knots.

Polish ocean racer Gutek has been chasing Brad hard but has stayed slightly more east, away from the strongest winds. As the fleet travel further south towards the Equator, the 36-year-old former dinghy champion has been coming to terms with the realities of life at sea alone. He said: “For the first time in the race I am lying down and bored, sitting like a rat below deck. Upstairs is hot and wet. I don’t have even a book.”

Canadian Derek Hatfield, last polled in third position, is looking forward to crossing the Equator, the next big milestone for the fleet as they head to Cape Town. “I would like to be a bit farther west as I don't want to go through the Cape Verde Islands,” he said. “We are now setting up for the crossing of the Equator which should happen in under six days. Roll on Equator.”

Belgian singlehander Christophe Bullens left La Rochelle yesterday morning on his new Eco 60 yacht Five Oceans of Smiles too. Christophe’s campaign was thrown into jeopardy when his original yacht Five Oceans of Smiles was cruelly dismasted 15 miles off the coast of France en route to La Rochelle. But he managed to find another boat to race in at the last minute and started the 30,000-mile solo race on time before returning to La Rochelle to make final preparations.

Since leaving he has been making good progress through the Bay of Biscay towards the open waters of the Atlantic. Christophe is expecting to pass Cape Finisterre on the north east corner of Spain this evening. At 12pm UTC Christophe was almost 1,490 nautical miles behind Brad and Le Pingouin.

“I am a little tired, however I am happy to be at sea,” he said. “I still have a few things to learn about the boat. It is different from the other boat and I need to get used to her, but it’s a good start.”

The fleet have now been at sea eight days and have more than 4,700 nautical miles left to sail to Cape Town.

Skipper; distance to finish (nm); distance to leader (nm); distance covered in last 24 hours (nm); average speed in last 24 hours (kts)

FIRST BLOOD SPILT IN VELUX 5 OCEANS


IT has been another day of drama for the VELUX 5 OCEANS skippers as they head further south towards the Equator. Following on from a manic day on the water yesterday which saw Brad Van Liew’s Le Pingouin knocked flat for the second time in days and Chris Stanmore-Major nearly lose his headsail twice, Polish ocean racer Zbigniew ‘Gutek’ Gutkowski became the first skipper to sustain a notable injury after slicing his head open on the blade of his wind generator.

Gutek suffered several cuts to his head as he tried to clear seaweed from the rudders of his Eco 60 yacht Operon Racing. “I don’t know how bad my wounds are, but I know that I was bleeding badly,” he said today. “At once I put on a head dressing to stop the bleeding. I couldn’t even estimate the size of my wound because my eyes were flooded with blood and couldn’t look at the mirror. I was really scared that I might not make it and lose consciousness because of the blood lost.”

The injury means Gutek has been forced to stay down below on Operon Racing to keep the cuts dry and free from infection. “I can’t go outside, because the waves come onboard very often and the boat is sailing with quite a big heel,” the 36-year-old added. “I don’t want to get my wound wet. The blades had enough sea salt on them. My wound is on my forehead, up under the hair. Not one cut, but a couple of them. It is just impossible to make a stitch – I will have a big scar for sure.”

Although the VELUX 5 OCEANS’ team of medical experts from Medical Offshore Support (MSOS) are on call 24/7, Gutek has been in regular contact his wife Eliza, a veterinary surgeon, for advice on dressing the wound. All of the skippers received medical training before setting sail from La Rochelle, and MSOS provide round-the-clock medical support to skippers while they are at sea.

Meanwhile American Brad Van Liew extended his lead over second-placed Gutek and the chasing pack as he charged south, just to the west of the Cape Verde Islands off the coast of Senegal. More than 60 nautical miles now separate the two, with Canadian Derek Hatfield around 200 nautical miles behind Brad in third place.

“It’s all been about going fast these last few days and laying down some miles,” Brad said. “I feel great to have stretched out a little bit on Derek and gotten a little bit of an advantage over Gutek. The Tradewinds are a good place to do that – if you have the horsepower and you are willing to lose a little sleep you just keep the boat fully powered up which is what I have been doing. I’ve been pushing the boat hard the last few days, sometimes on the verge.”

The racers at the leading edge of the pack have enjoyed some quick days of sailing, often covering more than 300 nautical miles in a day in favourable conditions. However one of their biggest challenges lays in wait – the Doldrums. Notorious for its light but unpredictable weather, the Doldrums is one of the most challenging areas of the world to sail through.

“We’re going to get the rubber band effect with the fleet, meaning it’s going to contract and expand here and there in the next few days” said Brad. “I think what’s more likely is the rubber band will get tighter and looser depending on what happens in the Doldrums - that’s the next big thing.”

The skippers are just nine days into the first of five ocean sprints that make up the VELUX 5 OCEANS, but Brad is already finding his feet, alone at sea for the first time in eight years. Brad has taken part in this race twice before, winning class two of the event in 2002. “I’m having a lot of fun getting to know the boat and getting back in the groove,” he said. “It’s been a lot of years since I did a voyage this big, especially alone, and I’m enjoying being out here more than I ever have before. It’s so far been a fantastic sail on a great boat in a great event.”

British solo sailor Chris Stanmore-Major has been recovering after a crazy few days onboard Spartan which saw him fight to recover his reaching headsail after the fitting attaching it to the front of his yacht broke twice in 48 hours. Stanmore-Major was left with no choice but to drop the sail in the sea then haul it, heavy and wet, back onto Spartan’s deck.

“I am proud I got that sail back in and didn't just cut it away,” he said. “Yes, I lost time but I gained a chance for another leg of this race. I repaired all the damage the incident did although Spartan will carry some of the scars to Cape Town. But most importantly I feel I have passed to a new level of respect and understanding of these boats. Perhaps it is that in the end which will help towards future success if now it has only lost me more time and let the others slip further away.”

Belgian sailor Christophe Bullens has been struggling to find breeze after passing Cape Finisterre off the north west tip of Spain last night. His progress has also been hampered by electrical problems on his yacht Five Oceans of Smiles too.

“Here there is no wind and the problem is I don’t have any electronics. No wind speed or wind direction, no boat speed, no radar and my autopilot doesn’t work anymore. Apart from that the boat is going really well and each day I hope to repair one more thing.”
