0 days to go .... bon voyage BAMO


RACE START DAY
Just spoke to BAMO on his mobile from Southampton. He sounds positive and anxious to get going. He said Sir Robin's speech at the crew briefing was excellent and there was a fantastic party atmosphere and heaps of people in Southampton.
The first leg is more than 6,000 miles - after they cross the starting line, they head south to the Portuguese island of Madeira for the inaugural sprint; from there they cross the Atlantic to Rio de Janeiro.
If you want, you can leave a message of support on the Clipper Facebook page.
What an amazing 11 months it is going to be for BAMO & Chris !!!
