The 22:00 GMT positions are in and what a race we have. Ericsson 4 has moved to the top of the leaderboard, but Telefonica Blue is further East.

It might be the last leg, but it doesn't appear as though anyone on that race course is willing to concede an inch.

Ericsson 3's Gustav Morin checked in about 45 minutes ago and said exactly that:

"Again we have a very intense race going on. We still have everyone more ore less in sight but the big fight has since the start been between PUMA, Telefonica Blue, Ericsson 4 and us.

"Just a couple of minutes ago we tacked from the Estonian coast and we are right on the tail of our sister ship and the Blue Spanish boat. PUMA did a bold move and went closer to shore.

"'It can pay of with a better shift in there but the risk is that the breeze gets lighter,' according to our navigator Aksel Magdahl. 'We would of course want to be in front but with the start we did we are pretty happy where we are now.'

Eivind Melleby is standing by the helm and overhears the conversation.

“'Yeah, this race is far from over.'

That's the view from Gustav, the MCM on Ericsson 3.

Meanwhile, everyone seems to be settling in for the night. Mark Covell has just sent me a message from the FleetBroadband Express that he's going to put his head down for a couple of hours, and I'm going to do the same.

But that doesn't mean you shouldn't email us. I'll be up before the next position report and it would be great to have some emails to answer. But until then...
