Into the South Atlantic for the GOR Class40s
At 15:00 local (19:00 GMT) on Monday, the four Class40s in the double-handed Global Ocean Race (GOR) crossed the Leg 4 start line in Punta del Este and are now heading for Charleston, South Carolina.

Throughout a windless and cloudless morning, the GOR teams continued to load their Class40s with the final necessities of fresh vegetables and bread on the shadeless pontoons in the blistering sun.

Start in Punta del Este
At 13:00 local, the teams motored out of the marina to the Leg 4 start managed by Pablo Elola and Alvaro Robaina and their team from the Yacht Club Punta del Este with the line positioned between the Puerto Punta del Este harbour breakwater and the small, uninhabited island, Isla Gorriti, just minutes from the pre-race pontoons.
