Leg 5 start replay | Volvo Ocean Race 2014-15

Great race. How important are these in-port races? I'm sure the public relations are paramount but I see all these spectator and official boats cut across the path of the contenders. Doesn't their wake have an effect, even if minimal?

[@rowanbarnes3976]

I think that they don't really care because compared to the southern ocean, boat wakes are nothing

25:11 Pete Burling onboard Dongfeng?

[@rabidbigdog]

[@godlyb5794]

[@shin8460]

the journalist keep saying team DongfOng lel

[@telimarkskierman]

Yea because thats how its pronounced...

[@rcknross]

the 65s should be ocean boats, around the horn, not wet dingy's

[@edouardjensen153]

They ARE round the Horn ocean RACING boats.

[@rcknross]

common, get real, would anyone in there right mind sail around the world in an open cockpit boat if they were designing it especially for safety -- they keep talking about the safety, then throw the worst at them in their exposed 'dingy' designs

[@edouardjensen153]

Ross Baker You obviously have no f..ing idea of what you are talking about.

[@Tromsosail]

and you can't spell "dinghies"

[@leeshepherd1948]

Edouard Jensen Perhaps ross baker could also suggest that those dangerous pointy things that stick up in the middle of the boat also be removed and a big engine put inside to help?
