Sträcka 5 Inverness till Edinburgh

Idag är det sträcka 5 på ostkusten från Inverness till Edinburgh som gäller. Team Vilda fick ge sig ut redan kl 6:00 (engelsk tid) för att alla båtar ska hinna ut ur sista slussen. Starten går runt kl 9:00.

Igår var det välbehövlig vila för teamet och det gjordes några få justeringar på båten.

Vi ses i Edinburgh!
