Two Fast rounding Suursaari

08:30 Update: Two Fast is approaching Kotka mark in 12 knts SE wind and is starting to round Suursaari soon. The night has been warm and the crew has had a good spirit all night long, even other boats have not been seen much due to fog.

09:30 Update: Two Fast passed the Kotka mark at 09:03 followed by Premium (X-41).

11:00 Update: Two Fast is currently east side of Suursaari and sailing around 8 knts. Luna is about 3 miles ahead. The crew is preparing the heavy sails due to expected heavy wind (25-30 knts) later during Saturday.

13:15 Update: Two Fast returned back to Kotka mark at 13:03. Wind is really high and tops upto 40 knts.

14:00 Update: Bad news.... we need to withdraw from the race as our main sail broke. One of the batten pockets got damaged, we lost a batten and the sail ripped off.

16:30 Update: Moored at Loviisa Tullisilta harbour. Link to Loviisa News.
