NICATOR CROSSES FINISH LINE
24 January 2003 - 15.10pm (S.African time)

Swedish entry, Nicator crossed the line just before 10:48 am, local time in a light Southerly breeze. The crew skippered by Klabbe Nylof is extremely happy to be in Rio and all are reportedly fit and well.
The elapsed time of 12 days, 23 hours, 47 minutes and 54 seconds is about 10 hours outside of Zephyrus IV's 2000 record.

The crew are disapointed not to have broken this record, but did not have the weather playing its part in order to do this.

They did however win their class against the local entry Adrenalina Pura who is expected to arrive tomorrow afternoon in Rio.
