But other teams are not far behind. Have the same “Alice” number of points – 8 – equal with the crew “the team”, and the girls with Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin – 12. Therefore, any of these yachts can compete for a place in the top three.
Yesterday, the first at the finish in the “Conrado” noted Evgeny Lyubimov and “tango,” adding in his piggy Bank more point, however, at the end while the team only on the 6th position in the standings. At the top of the chart Dmitry is Last and his team Twist. Behind him Sergei Silkin on the “tuning Fork”, the third “Impulse”, and in 4th place was suddenly broken by the yacht “Ariel”. By the way, “Momentum”, “Ariel” and Okey equal number of points – for 9, so the question is on the third place remains open. Total group “Konrad 25 R” are fighting for the victory of 9 teams.
