  1. I saw her yesterday, I was driving and I saw a dark blue hull with a 4 spreaders fractional rig by the side of the road, so I stopped to have a quick look, and i wa sthere for almost an hour. She is at the Base Navale Flavio Gioia in Gaeta, Italy, on dry land (next to Skagerrak

    also on dry land!). She was bought by Paul Cayard as a "hare" to tune up his 2007 Whitbread entry, then sold again and renamed as Jena. Apparently she has been ashore for few years. She looked a little sad, but absolutely beautiful; better looking in dark blue too.....
