An epic race draws slowly to a close

The Rolex Middle Sea Race 2007 just refuses to draw to a close. This exceptional race that has witnessed many different stories of success and misfortune has almost taken on a life of its own. Windsong (GBR), Nord Star (RUS) and Muzyka (ITA) all finished last night between 2AM and 2.50AM. This leaves one yacht on the course, the German trimaran High Q1, for whom the race must have taken on the character of a personal Everest.
