Well, knock me down with a feather! When Mark Lagesse said Shosholoza would be disappointed if they didn’t beat Luna Rossa, that just seemed like the usual bravado you get from sailors after a good day on the water. Apologies, Mark, I should never have doubted you!

We may only have had three days’ racing so far, but every day has produced a big upset. Long may it continue.
