Sancho, Offshore34.. I added you to the Hull Truth Group. There should be somewhere for you to accept the invitation. Anybody else that isn't a part of the hull truth group, let me know and I will add you.
I am Yeocokent. I don't think I have received the invitation. We are out about 200 miles with no wind drinking scotch and soda until our lot improves.

I did not recieve an invitation. My boat is the Yeocokent.
I don't think he forgot you, he left you out intentionally
By the way, send the banner to me with "Winner Leg 3" on it because I've got a feeling I'm going to need it. I just bought some lottery tickets so I'm also going to be rich. Don't worry, I won't rub it in..........much.

I sent you guys invitations. If your name is not on the list, you haven't joined the group. I think it is better having the group. You can click on the Results tab, then select group and it will show you exactly where you stand out of all the hull truthers.

Well, I will be holding it - AS THE WINNER - when you finally show up. I might let you polish it with a piece of your torn sails when you limp in. That is of course, if you don't end up on the rocks or as some Singaporean pirate booty.

Official VORG Tees
By popular demand we're working hard to realise the Official Volvo Ocean Race Game Tees. Based on the results of the poll on the website we will design and sell three versions of the shirt. The different taglines are:
And of course a game logo etc. As soon as we have established all the facts about the T-shirt we will let you know more.
Preparation for leg 3
As we did with the last lag we want to give everybody some rest like the real teams have before heading to Singapore. Therefore we will close the race two days before the start of leg 3 at 11 December 22:00 GMT +1, at which time all remaining ships will be teleported to Cochin. The course to Singapore promises to be a daunting one. There are a lot of islands and coastal lines to stay away from so please pay attention to your heading.
There will be another Newsletter send out to you before the start of Leg 3. We'll announce new sponsors, bigger prizes and more details about the course to follow!
