After another night upwind with regular tacks across the Bay of Cadiz in light airs and into head seas, the first multihull on Leg 1 of the Route des Princes turned the corner at Cape St Vincent, on the SW tip of Portugal, early this morning. From there they have around 60 miles to make to the finish at the entrance to Lisbon's Tagus river where the winner should arrive in the early afternoon. Because of the light winds the race committee have decided to shorten the course, finishing at Buoy 2, some 5.6 miles from the entrance to the Tagus.
