competitor Abhilash Tomy - 2nd place finisher has about 10-12 knots of wind, with about 7.0 miles to go.

Coming into Les Sables d’Olonne, France - after a great around the world adventure.

Abhilash was severely injured during his GGR 2018 attempt, in the bad storm in Southern Indian Ocean. Was rescued, and went on to strenuous recovery.

Abhilash was not going to be denied a completion and returned to a strong second place finish - that is coming to a close later this night.

Very close to the last mile - and the wind is so quiet. Water is nearly glass, with a light swell.

This last mile is going to take a long time.

No official announcement to her, yet - that she will be the winner. Hopefully, no one has let the news slip via radio.

Moitessier's sail in 1968 was marked by a legendary act of renunciation - he abandoned just before the finish line & continued solo. His journey was a testament to the power of simplicity & the beauty of a life at sea

N. Atlantic gets a makeover as low-pressure system takes over, pushing high-pressure eastwards. @abhilashtomy, leading the pack, enjoys the wind at his back with speeds of 25kts, setting the record w/ the fastest of 155miles & best 4hr average of the week @ggr2022
