Grands Records - Salvador?
17 April 17:45

At 13:17 GMT today, Saturday 17 April, Geronimo’s position was 14°01S, 34°46W, 60 nautical miles south of the latitude of Salvador

The baroque city of Salvador (formerly Bahia) was once Brazil’s colonial capital, and still remains its third largest city. Could it live up to its name and deliver salvation for Olivier de Kersauson and his crew?

Will they finally find the wind they need off Todos os Santos bay?

Whatever prayers may or may not have been said by those on board the trimaran and, closer to home, by those of her shore–based teams, Geronimo was reporting 13 knots of southeasterly wind at the time of this position fix. The Capgemini and Schneider Electric trimaran was then making a true speed of 14.9 knots.
