Today Qingdao Arrived in Nongsa Point Marina in Batam, Indonesia. This is also a special day for Qingdao as it is Chinese New year...Xin Nain Kuai Le (Happy new Year) you guys.
Today the fleet leave stealth mode and once again appear on the race viewer.
Due to extremely light winds and the increased risk of Piracy, Clipper have decided to end Race 7 and the positions of the yachts as they crossed into the Celebes Sea and into Stealth mode, will be taken as the final standings for Race 7. Qingdao therefore finished in 4th place. Well done guys.
The fleet is currently making their way to Batam, Indonesia, before formal arrival in the marina at Keppel Bay, Singapore. Today at 03:13 GMT, Qingdao entered Stealth mode as they crossed into the Celebes Sea (stretch of water between the Philippines, Indonesia and Malaysia). The Race viewer will be frozen for approximately 4 days. This area is a severe risk to the fleet due to light winds, navigational hazards (as the most recent charts of the area date back to Captain Cook's time)...but most of all Piracy. Good luck and be safe to all crew.
