Start of leg 5. 19/06/2013

The ARC Portugal fleet have now begun their 55NM passage from Figueira Da Foz to the quaint fishing port of Peniche. After a 24 hour delay due to poor weather conditions which caused the port in Figueira to close temporarily, the fleet had a great start this morning with 12-15kts from North-West, albeit a tad overcast.
