John Fisher - Volvo Race Sailor lost at sea
1,400 miles west of Cape Horn, damaged by a crash gybe, they were 200 miles windward of the nearest competitor. The nearest commercial ship was 400 miles away. Team Scallywag crew member John Fisher (UK) was swept overboard. Although he was wearing a survival suit in the 48 F waters, and gale force winds and sea state several hours of searching by his teammates were fruitless. The boat is again heading east toward Cape Horn where they will be met by race officials and investigators, I presume.
