The Volvo Ocean racers are starting to hit the heavy seas as the Southern ocean weather starts to worsen.
To make matters more interesting,most of the crews are suffering from flu. For the record, Puma is topping the leaderboard, followed by the twins of Telefonica Blue, and then Telefonica Black, both with South Africans on board. Blue has Jono Swain, with Mike Pammenter of Cape Town, pictured above, on Black. The leaderboard will change constantly, as the boats take different courses to find the best weather patterns.
