Despite the close fight for line honours OneDLL has redress of 2 hours 57 minutes for going to the aid of Derry~Londonderry~Doire during its MOB incident. This could upset the leader board by leapfrogging any boat less than this time ahead of them over the finish line. All results are provisional until PSP Logistics finishes which is racing on an elapsed time basis, having started 36 hours behind the rest of the fleet.
