JV Jumble II–Geronimo Busting Loose: Back in the Atlantic, Olivier De Kersauson and Geronimo are speeding south again, and finally got a daily run over 500 miles (523 miles yesterday). The big trimaran is still struggling to keep pace with Orange 2002, and is about 150 miles behind the record pace. Geronimo has been fighting her way through an uncooperative South Atlantic High, but weather forecasts indicate a strong depression about to pass to the south, which could give Geronimo her express ticket to the Roaring Forties and a chance to make up ground. This is the point at which Cheyenne finally passed Orange 2002. Maybe De Kersauson is about to do the same thing….
