A Long Strange Trip



It was a long strange trip for the PUMA Ocean Racing team. Leg Five began in Qingdao, China on Valentine's Day and finished in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil at the end of March. 42 days at sea, couped up with 11 other guys, a limited supply of freeze-dried food, no shower, one toilet, Michi became a father for the first time during the leg...can you imagine?
