First yacht crosses the line in Bergen-Shetland race

The first yacht has reached Shetland this afternoon in the Bergen-Shetland race.

Enderpearl, the largest of the remaining 40 entries, crossed the line at 2.25pm.

That was just under 26-and-a-half hours after she left Norway.

More are expected to arrive later this afternoon, with the rest sailing in this evening.
