Orange sticking with the orange code
Bruno Peyron, his navigator Roger Nilson and the shore based weather team are still looking closely the way the weather systems are developing off New York and in the North Atlantic. The charts are not clear enough today to move to green code, (meaning they would set sail within the next 72 hours), nor to return to red code (meaning that no window of opportunity is within sight again). Bruno Peyron has therefore decided to stick to the orange code. The crew of the giant are reindexing on stand-by, ready to jump into the first plane for New York.We can add that some of the simulations drawn up by Peyron and his team appear to offer the possibility of a crossing in 4 days and 6 hours.
We shall see….
