Rolex Sydney Hobart 2013: Wild Oats XI na mecie
Australijski "Wild Oats XI" pierwszy minął linie mety 69. regat Rolex Sydney-Hobart Race, odnosząc siódme zwycięstwo w słynnym żeglarskim klasyku. Dystans 628 mil pokonał w czasie 2 dni 6 godzin 7 minut 27 sekund.

„Perpetual LOYAL” Anthonego Bella prowadził w wyścigu Rolex Sydney Hobart niemal od samego startu. Sytuacja zmieniła się jednak na korzyść faworyta, posiadacza rekordu przepłynięcia trasy z Sydney do Hobart podczas regat (rekord bezwzględny należy do wielokadłubowca), jachtu „Wild Oats XI” Roberta Oatleya. Zgodnie bowiem z prognozami, na trasie wiatr zelżał niemal do zera, a takie warunki są bardziej sprzyjające dla „Wild Oatsa”. „Perpetual LOYAL” zaczyna wykorzystywać swój potencjał dopiero przy wietrze 12-14 węzłów i więcej, dlatego jego nieco sfrustrowany skipper i właściciel, Anthony Bell czeka na prognozowaną w ciągu kilku godzin poprawę warunków. Jak powiedział w rozmowie z organizatorami regat, „mamy tu obecnie 4 węzły wiatru. Nawet na krytym basenie, na którym zajęcia z pływania ma moja dwuletnia córka, wieje teraz więcej...”

Do prowadzącego do niedawna „Perpetual LOYAL” zaczynają zbliżać się także żeglujące za nim pozostałe stustopowe jednostki, przede wszystkim lżejsze od niego „Ragamuffin 100”, „Beau Geste” oraz „Giacomo”. Wg Biura Meteorologicznego, wszystkie siedem prowadzących obecnie w regatach „stustopowców” powinno dostać się pod wpływ sprzyjającego, północno-wschodniego wiatru już za kilka godzin dzięki czemu pierwsze z nich ukończą wyścig mniej więcej w sobotę późnym wieczorem czasu lokalnego (w sobotę rano naszego czasu).
Znacznie gorzej wygląda natomiast prognoza dla pozostałych jednostek. Biuro Meteo zapowiada bowiem nadejście nad Cieśninę Bassa silnego, zachodniego i południowo-zachodniego wiatru o prędkości 30-40 węzłów właśnie w czasie, w którym liderzy osiągną linię mety. Meteorolodzy przestrzegają przy tym przed możliwością pojawienia się bardzo wysokich fal nawet do 10 m wysokości.
W międzyczasie otrzymaliśmy informację o kolejnym polskim żeglarzu biorącym udział w regatach Sydney Hobart. Prócz wspomnianego wcześniej Jakuba Jankowskiego, żeglującego na jachcie „Illusion”, w wyścigu bierze udział także Krzysztof Ślęzak, który na jednostce „Jamaica Get All Right” startuje w wyścigu z Sydney do Hobart w ramach etapu regat Clipper Round the World.
