More steadfast crews arrive back in Malta

By 7AM this morning five more yachts had crossed the finish line of the 28th Rolex Middle Sea Race. British yacht Nisida led the minor charge finishing just before midnight, whilst Martin Scicluna’s Air Malta Falcon (MLT) completed the course just before seven. In between came the Swiss boat Tai Shan, Elusive Medbank and finally Guts ‘n’ Glory (GER), which sailed most of the race with only a trysail after their main gave out before she reached Stromboli. By 5PM two more – Obelix (ITA) and Slingshot (GBR) – were back on their berths, with Global Yacht Racing (GBR) hoping to arrive at some point this evening.
