Oman Sail’s A100 Majan, alongside their 75-ft trimaran Musandam, will be tracing out the new Indian Ocean 5 Capes Race leaving Muscat (Oman) at 2.00pm local tomorrow. Majan skipper gave this weather update: “We had 25 knots of wind yesterday, 23 today and now it has gone down to nothing so we seem to be in a variable place. But, in theory, we should start in about 8 knots tomorrow, maybe a little bit more thermal enhancing so it could pick up a bit. Then we head out into quite an interesting weather pattern and on Sunday we are not going to be far from 40 knot squalls so it should be exciting!”
