It's been 30 days since we set sail on our virtual voyage around the world and a lot has happened in the race. Our boat 'four sea' set sail in fine winds but then got jammed in by lots of other boats as we all tried to sail through the straights of Gibraltar. Once on the open sea however we made up lots of time and gained lots of places in the rankings.
But disaster struck.
During our half term break no one could keep an eye on our boat's heading and when we arrived back in school we discovered that we had wrecked our boat off the Venezuelan coast! Thankfully this is a virtual game so all we had to do was point ourselves in the right direction and set sail again. We have lost a lot of places but we are still sailing and have just gained over 100 places today due to the very strong South Atlantic winds.
Keep checking back to see how we fair in this amazing virtual race.

The second leg is starting this saturday at 11h00. Next port Cochin in India. 2 solutions following the east coast of Africa and then cross the north of the indian ocean or use the winds of the south to cross first and then heading north. This leg is going to be a strategic one. To help you http://www.windfinder.com/forecasts/swell_indian_ocean_akt.htm.
