| The weather is drier and the tradewinds steadier, so weather conditions are more stable. |
| The aim is to succeed in joining up with the tradewinds present over the Southern edge of the ridge of high pressure. |
| Such a separation might seem sizeable, but it should quickly be reduced in the tradewinds of the northern hemisphere. |
| The final system of breeze should be a little less steady than the current tradewinds so Groupama 3 is likely to make headway in fits and starts at the end of this week. |
| It's fine weather with a few cumulus reminiscent of the good conditions, with slightly shifty tradewinds on the beam. |
| The top five boats are lined up from East-West as if on a start line: the first to escape the clutches of the doldrums and hit the SE'ly tradewinds may be able to start an option leading them to ultimate victory. |
