Volvo Ocean Race 2008/2009
"Delta Lloyd – Matt Gregory (Navigator)
“Where am I? I went through the wrong door of the time machine. Beam me up Scottie.” Gerd Jan Johnnie Poortman said as he emerged from the companion way onto deck.
A lot of things changed during his four-hour slumber in the bunk.
Sun, warm, nice smoooooth waves, 15 knots of wind. The boat was silently - gently brushing aside a bow wave as we glided along at 14 knots of boat speed.
Fortunately, for me, I’ve had an action-packed day. I’ve been moving the boat through a wind transition zone, like a queen attacking the king on a chess board."
