24 hours in the bow of the boat, upside down in 5c waters off teh Chiliean coast, by Jean Le Cam was rescued by another competitor... took 4 passes for him to be able to get on board Vincent Riou's boat... they're heading toward the Beagle Channel where Riou will drop off Le Cam before resuming his race...

17 competitors have had to drop out so far... the two leading boats have passed the horn for the final leg up the atlantic.
