Graham Dalton, New Zealand solo sailor on A SOUTHERN MAN ABD in the VELUX 5 OCEANS solo race had to put into Bluff, southernmost port of South Island, as his foodstuff had become contaminated from a broken diesel tank. Dalton will encounter an obligatory 48 hours forfeit for receiving onshore help. His current position at third ahead of  Unai Busurko and Sir Robin Knox-Johnson will undoubtedly be affected by the penalty.

Bernard Stamm (SUI) on CHEMINEES POUJOULAT and Kojiro Shiraishi (JPN) on SPIRIT OF YUKOH are lying first and second
