Third time 'Round The Horn for Van Liew






Brad Van Liew must be loving the Third Leg of the Velux 5 Oceans race, since he continues to be in the lead, and since he has successfully rounded Cape Horn for the third time in his career. He writes in his blog that he witnessed a picture perfect moment, in 20 knot winds, as he saw the rock outcropping in sunset's spendor - making a new mental memory for the veteran sailor.
In support of Lazarus Racing as the Le Pingouin team needs further funding, the Cape Horn Crew was created recently asking for contributions of $500, and future fundraising efforts will follow. So whatever supporters can spare, it's not too late to join sailing guru Brad Van Liew's brew crew at www.OceanRacing.com. To read more of Van Liew's blog click here. Remember, Leg Four of the Velux 5 oceans race will end on Charleston! For prior Velux 5 oceans entries click here.
