Clipper Yacht Race Update – The Crew Arrive in Cape Town

The Edinburgh Inspiring Capital's crew arrived in Cape Town on Friday 30th Sept after their 3rd race, with only another 12 to go! The Kinloch Anderson kilts seem to be withstanding the harsh conditions as the crew look fantastic.

As they got closer to Cape Town, the crew had the opportunity to see some wonferful wildlife. As quoted by the skipper Gordon - "The South Atlantic is teeming with wildlife including whales, dolphins and various sea birds. Yesterday there were loads of huge albatross surfing the updrafts on the massive ocean swell. They look so graceful, hardy moving their wings at all, just gliding along nonchalantly. We also had a pod of around eight dolphins come for a visit and together shared the surf for about 45 minutes before they bid us farewell."
