Larry Ellison hat das australische Segel-Abenteuer nicht nur
überlebt, sondern sogar gewonnnen. An der NASDAQ hat
Oracle heute mit einem Prozent weit unter dem allgemeinen
Schnitt (1,87) zugelegt.

"We just want to pay tribute to families who lost sailors who
were in this race and our prayers go out to the search crews
and the people who are still in the water," Ellison said when
his US yacht, the Sayonara, was officially declared the
winner. "We hope they all can be found."
Few spectators were in the Hobart, Australia, harbor when
Ellison and crew crossed the line just after 8 a.m., several
hours ahead of defending champion Brindabella.
....
Military helicopters hovered over 35-foot swells to hoist more
than 50 sailors to safety off Australia's southeast coast, 250
miles south of Sydney. Many of the yachtsmen sustained
broken bones, dislocated shoulders, and lacerations from
being struck by broken rigging.
....
Earlier Tuesday, rescuers located a body, believed to be one
of three missing yachtsmen from the abandoned Australian
cutter Winston Churchill. The sailors were swept off a life raft
shortly before two of their shipmates were rescued late
Monday.
....
One member of Ellison's 23-man crew had a broken ankle,
but otherwise they were safe.
