Maserati Multi70 and the crew are still in standby for a few more days in Hong Kong.
The team studied the weather situation and it persuaded skipper Giovanni Soldini to change the departure plans.
“A nice wind starts blowing from North-East at the end of this week, due to the arrival of a cold front on Japan. It would let us depart for the Hong Kong-London route at the beginning of next week” explains Giovanni Soldini. “In addition, according to the last weather models, the stationary hurricane in front of Madagascar is moving South and it’s becoming a depression: the general situation is getting more standard in the Indian Ocean. Because of this news we decided to wait for a few more days and depart with a better weather window.”
