WINDSURFING TOURISTS: With a half day time out to service the RIBs, the teams took an excursion into Casablanca. The third RIB joined the team late at night and extra time for refueling and provisions were needed. By 3pm the teams motored out of the harbor as the wind was 8-12 from the west. The two team captains took to the water and the third race of the journey was launched. Brazil won the short but controversial race and with light winds and night falling, the race was terminated. The plan was to motor through the night to Agadir some 220 miles down the African coast. The night turned out to be a wakeup call for the whole expedition. Stay tuned.
