NORTHERLY WIND

The strong northerly wind has gone. Some of our competitors must have
made huge gains in tuff condiions (cold!) The NW-erly that we have had
during the first day of leg 4 is now about to die out and we expect
calms in the afternoon. Tactical this will be a crucial part of the
race. Who will get to the new wind first, and how. Acccoridng to the
routing suggestions by Expedition software, we have taken a slightly
westerly coarse to be in a better position. I will get a new grib file
now to see if there are changes in the forecast.
