Majan’s high-speed express ride to Cape Town has come to a halt as the crew on the A100 cross a high pressure zone reducing the trimarans speed to less than 2 knots at times.  The second of the great capes on the Indian Ocean 5 Capes Race course - Cape Aguhlas - lies 350+ miles away and Cape Town another 170 miles after that. As a result there estimated time of arrival in Cape Town is unlikely to be tomorrow (Monday 1st March) but both the pro sailors on board and the less seasoned Omani crew have learnt to resolve themselves to life at sea and accept that Mother Nature controls all: “We have been set a course, with a start and a finish, that is a set distance. No one has set a time that we must do it in. We are doing everything we can, to sail fast. I have learnt to never wish my time at sea away. You can set the distance but you can never set the time…” mused Mohsin Al Busaidi, the first Arab to sail non-stop around the world on board Musandam.
